Purdue pass-rusher Nic Scourton is expected to enter the transfer portal after leading the Big Ten in sacks, sources told Bruce Feldman of The Athletic.

Scourton - who had 10 quarterback takedowns, 50 tackles, and 28 hurries this season - will be "a hot commodity" in the portal, adds Feldman.

The former four-star recruit boasts an ability to play along the defensive line and starred in big-time matchups against Michigan and Ohio State in 2023.

Scourton changed his name from Nic Caraway ahead of the season to honor his father.
