Duke Football’s Transfer QB Eligibility Shocker Could Change Everything This Season
Duke officially has its next quarterback to replace Darian Mensah in 2026. With the messy Mensah situation ending with his transfer to Miami, the Blue Devils will be led by former San Jose State star Walker Eget in the fall.
Eget committed to Duke from the college football transfer portal in January, but he had to apply for a sixth year of eligibility. The NCAA approved his waiver on Thursday, ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported, allowing Eget to play in 2026.
Eget transferred to Duke after five years at San Jose State, the last two as its starting quarterback. He threw for 5,555 passing yards, 30 touchdowns and 19 interceptions from 2024 to 2025. Eget’s 3,051-yard season in 2025 was the ninth-most in school history.
