Boston College football has added its second quarterback prospect out of the transfer portal. 

The Eagles have landed Arkansas transfer quarterback Grayson Wilson, according to a report from 247Sports/CBS Sports’ Chris Hummer. 

“Arkansas true freshman QB transfer Grayson Wilson (@graysonrwilson) has committed to Boston College, his reps @mmainiero34 and @ScottCasterline @TSportsAgency tell @CBSSports,” said Hummer via X. “The 6-foot-3, 211-pound Wilson held an 89 rating in the 2025 class.” 

Wilson did not see time in a game for the Razorbacks in 2025. 

As a prospect, the North Little Rock, Ark., native was a three-star from the class of 2025. He ranked No. 513 nationally, No. 33 in quarterbacks, and No. 4 in the state of Ark., according to 247Sports Composite. 

During his senior year of high school, Wilson passed for over 1,500 yards and 17 touchdowns and led Conway High School to the 7A state semifinals. 

Wilson is the 14th player to join the Eagles via the transfer portal during the window. 

He joins former Alabama defensive back Kameron Howard, former Maryland running back Nolan Ray, former Maryland defensive back Kevyn Humes, former Jacksonville State offensive tackle Reggie Jackson, former UNC wide receiver Javarius Green, former Washington State linebacker Anthony Palano,  former Holy Cross long snapper John Owens, former Buffalo EDGE Demetrius Ballard, former Saginaw Valley State quarterback Mason McKenzie, former Florida wide receiver Jackson Wade, former Florida State defensive lineman KJ Sampson, former Michigan State offensive lineman Kristian Phillips, and former Liberty running back Evan Dickens. 

The transfer portal will stay open until Jan. 16.
