Washington safety Mishael Powell enters the transfer portal
In the aftermath of what looks to be the end of Kalen DeBoer’s time at Washington, the Huskies have one of their first defections in safety Mishael Powell.
Powell had been a member of the program for the past five seasons. After redshirting as a freshman and not playing his first two years, he appeared in over 30 games with double-digit starts over the past three seasons.
In that time, Powell recorded 92 tackles, nine deflections, three interceptions with one pick-six, and a forced fumble. In 2023, Powell posted 38 tackles, all three of his picks, and a career-best in deflections with six.
His interception score was the crucial, deciding play against Arizona State this season as he returned it for 89 yards to give the Huskies their first and final lead of the game against the Sun Devils.
Powell played high school football at O’Dea (WA) as a member of the 2019 cycle.
Powell is the eighth loss in the portal for the Huskies since the end of the season. However, he is the first since what looks to be a change of leadership that’s about to take place in Seattle with at least a few more potentially on the way out now.
