Former <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/oregon-ducks/">Oregon</a> wide receiver <a href="https://www.on3.com/rivals/ryan-pellum-103568/">Ryan Pellum</a> is transferring to <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/delaware-state-hornets/">Delaware State</a>, sources tell On3. The former four-star recruit will play for first-year head coach and former NFL wide receiver <a href="https://www.on3.com/rivals/desean-jackson-137327/">DeSean Jackson</a>. 



Pellum redshirted his freshman season at Oregon and has four years of eligibility remaining. The wide receiver entered the transfer portal in January and was arrested days later on charges of assault with use of a firearm after allegedly pistol-whipping a person in Long Beach, California, on Christmas Day. 



He pleaded no contest on June 13 to one count of aggravated assault using a semi-automatic firearm, according to court records. With the plea, prosecutors agreed to dismiss two special allegations that would have added to his potential sentence.



As part of his probation, he must forfeit any firearms registered to him, complete a 52-week anger management course and log 100 hours of community service. He is the nephew of former Oregon linebacker and defensive coordinator Don Pellum, and chose to sign with the Ducks under that last name in 2023 instead of his given name of Taylor.



Before enrolling at Oregon, Ryan Pellum was ranked as a four-star prospect and the No. 171 overall recruit in the 2024 recruiting class. He also checked in as the No. 28 receiver in the class and the No. 12 overall player from the state of California, hailing from Long Beach (California) Millikan.



A Polynesian Bowl invitee out of high school, Pellum caught 66 passes for 991 yards and 11 touchdowns as a senior in 2023. His productivity got him on the radar of plenty of top-tier programs, including Oregon. As a junior in high school, Ryan Pellum caught 52 passes for 1,028 yards and 10 touchdowns while adding 27 tackles and a kick return touchdown.



DeSean Jackson is a three-time Pro Bowler and won a Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams. Delaware State opens the season on Aug. 28 at Delaware.
