IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa Moon Family Head Football Coach Kirk Ferentz announced on Monday that two players have left the team and are planning to enter the transfer portal in December.

Senior running back Leshon Williams (Chicago/Richards HS) and junior wide receiver Kaleb Brown (Chicago/St. Rita HS/Ohio State) both informed Coach Ferentz of their plans on Monday.

“We thank both players for their contributions to the program and wish them the best as they move forward,” Ferentz said.

Williams competed in 32 career games as a Hawkeye, including limited action in three contests this fall.

Brown saw action in 14 games since last season, including limited action in three contests in 2024.
