The Colorado Buffaloes made headlines throughout their first season under head coach Deion Sanders. He made full use of the college football transfer portal, with 50 players transferring in after he was hired. Colorado won its first three games of the season before losing eight of its last nine, so the Buffaloes are looking for improvement this season. They return senior quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who is playing in a new-look offense under coordinator Pat Shurmur. The longtime NFL coach is a full-time college coordinator for the first time, so Colorado has tried to get him new pieces for the Colorado football roster from the spring transfer portal.
There are still key players in the portal, giving Sanders a chance to make a few more tweaks to the Colorado football lineup.

Colorado football roster departures
One of the more notable departures from the Colorado football roster is cornerback Cormani McClain. The former five-star recruit played in nine games for the Buffaloes last season, starting in four. He recorded 13 total tackles including six unassisted, one tackle for loss and two pass breakups.
He has a rare blend of size, length and speed, but he wasn’t the immediate star most assumed he would be coming out of high school. McClain’s departure leaves depth concerns in Colorado’s secondary. That’s a big reason why the Buffaloes have signed corners like RJ Johnson (Arkansas) and DJ McKinney (Oklahoma State) this offseason.

Colorado football news, roster
Colorado struggled to protect its quarterback more than any team in college football last season, so Sanders put an emphasis on revamping his offensive line in the offseason. It has been a total overhaul, with 11 of the 14 projected scholarship linemen being newcomers. Right guard Justin Mayers transferred from UTEP after starting all 12 games for the Miners in 2023 and has 36 games of college experience under his belt.
Indiana transfer Kahlil Benson will line up next to Mayers at right tackle after he allowed just one sack on 424 pass attempts last season. The Buffaloes have a new backfield as well, with their top four rushers from last season leaving. Former Miami (OH) running back Rashad Amos flipped his commitment from Mississippi State to Colorado, while Dallan Hayden played in 13 games over the last two seasons for Ohio State before committing to Colorado this offseason.
