“To coach (Jake) Dickert, my teammates, and all of Coug Nation, thank you for the last two years,” he posted on social media. “Thank you for supporting me day in and day out and for showing me some of the best days of college football; I am forever grateful.

“After a lot of reflection, I will be evaluating entering the 2024 NFL Draft as well as intending to enter my name into the transfer portal as a grad transfer.”

Ward earned All-Pac 12 Conference honorable mention honors his first season at Washington State in 2022. He passed for 3,231 yards, 23 touchdowns and nine interceptions.
