Virginia Tech senior safety Jalen Stroman had his season affected by injury, but he is looking for a fresh start.

The 6-foot-1, 200-pound Stroman entered the transfer portal Monday. He had five tackles against Vanderbilt in the season opener.

Stroman hopes to find the form from his junior year, when he had 55 tackles and two passes defended. He had a season-high 14 tackles in a 24-17 loss vs. Purdue on Sept. 9, 2023, and he also had 10 stops in a 39-17 loss at Florida State on Oct. 7.

Stroman had 43 tackles, two forced fumbles and two passes defended his sophomore year.

Stroman was a Rivals.com three-star prospect coming out of Nokesville (Va.) Patriot High. He was ranked No. 16 overall in Virginia and No. 60 nationally at safety.

Stroman picked Virginia Tech, where his brother Greg Stroman also played at, and had offers from Duke, Indiana, James Madison, Kent State, Old Dominion, Richmond, Syracuse, Temple, Vanderbilt and Virginia.
