Iowa quarterback Cade McNamara will re-enter the NCAA transfer portal and petition the NCAA for a seventh season of eligibility, ESPN reported Wednesday.
McNamara transferred to Iowa before the 2023 season but tore his left ACL in the fifth game. He started eight games in 2024 before a concussion in the Oct. 26 game against Northwestern caused him to miss the rest of the regular season.
Over his 13 games with the Hawkeyes, McNamara completed 57.3 percent of his pass attempts for 1,522 yards with 10 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
Before Iowa, McNamara spent four seasons at Michigan. He appeared in only three games for the Wolverines in 2022 because of a knee injury and could seek to have a season reinstated for a medical redshirt.
The NCAA would need to grant a waiver for McNamara to play in 2025.
McNamara, a Nevada native, will turn 25 before the start of the next football season.
