Texas wide receiver Parker Livingstone intends to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports.
ESPN’s Pete Thamel had it first.
The redshirt freshman broke out in his second season with the Longhorns, forming a quick connection with quarterback Arch Manning. He appeared in all 13 games and caught 29 passes for 516 yards and six scores in 2025.
His 17.8 yards per reception led the Longhorns this season, while he was second on the team in touchdown receptions, third in receiving yards and fourth in receptions.

The 19-year-old closed the season with three catches for 25 yards in a Citrus Bow victory against Michigan on New Year’s Eve.
Livingstone signed with Texas after playing high school football at Lovejoy in the Dallas area. He had previously described playing for the Longhorns in glowing terms.
“I was in Longhorn gear as a little kid,” Livingstone said in a news conference earlier in the season. “I came to — I think — Texas was playing A&M on Thanksgiving in 2010 or 2011. It’s crazy. It’s surreal. Sark always says, ‘take in the moment.’ I run out there and just kind of look up at 110,000 fans yelling ‘Texas fight.’ It’s really cool.”
After two years at his dream school, Livingstone now enters the transfer portal seemingly searching for greener pastures.
