Former Tennessee Vols defensive back Keyshawn Lawrence plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal according to 247Sports' Matt Zenitz. 

Lawrence is a former four-star recruit from Nashville who signed with the Vols during the 2020 recruiting cycle. He spent the 2020 season at Tennessee before transferring to Oklahoma in the wake of the Jeremy Pruitt recruiting scandal. 

The Nashville native had a solid season for Oklahoma in 2023, totaling 44 tackles, three passes defensed and two interceptions. 

In Week 4, Lawrence was college football's highest graded safety. 

Lawrence will have one more year of eligibility remaining (his COVID season).
