Troy junior wide receiver Devonte Ross becomes one of the few 1,000-yard receivers in the transfer portal.

Ross topped 95 yards in six games last year. His ability in the return game will also be a key addition. He returned 11 punts for 154 yards and the touchdown, plus 13 kickoffs for 214 yards and a long of 30.

Ross originally signed with Kentucky and was projected as a three-star cornerback by Rivals.com. He never made it to Lexington in the class of 2021.
