Junior Auburn transfer safety Caleb Wooden has signed with Arkansas, the program announced Tuesday.

A 6-foot-1, 192-pound native of Georgia, Wooden totaled 17 tackles, one tackle for loss, one interception and two pass breakups in 2024. He started six games and played in 10, according to Pro Football Focus.

PFF also awarded Wooden a 67.6 defensive grade, a 58.7 run defense grade, a 75.3 tackling grade and a 70.7 coverage grade on 305 snaps.

Throughout his three-year career with the Tigers, Wooden has accumulated 41 total tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, one sack, one forced fumble, two interceptions and four pass breakups. Wooden received a 76.6 PFF defensive mark in 2023 (218 snaps) and a 64.6 mark in 2022 (68 snaps).

After entering the transfer portal, Wooden reported offers from Texas State, UTEP, Florida Atlantic, North Texas and Washington State, but ultimately landed with the Razorbacks.

Arkansas landed its 19th transfer addition for the 2025 cycle on Tuesday when former Auburn safety Caleb Wooden announced his next destination. Wooden, 6-1, 192, chose the Razorbacks after wrapping up an official visit in Fayetteville (Ark.) last Friday. He has now officially signed with the Hogs.

Wooden, a Lawrenceville (Ga.) native who returned a fumble 74 yards against Arkansas in 2023, was recruited by defensive coordinator Travis Williams and secondary coach Marcus Woodson. He is the Hogs' second safety addition from the transfer portal, joining Eastern Michigan transfer Quentavius Scandrett.

Arkansas also signed the nation's top JUCO cornerback in Keshawn Davila as well as two transfer corners Jordan Young (Cincinnati) and Kani Walker (Oklahoma).

Wooden had 17 tackles, an interception and a pass break-up as a part-time starter at Auburn in 2024 and provides plenty of SEC experience after appearing in 28 career games on The Plains.

"Familiarity with the staff, they're family to us," Wooden said. "That is big for me. I want to have that relationship with my coaches especially in this day and age of NIL and portal. A lot of stuff is not real and the relationship I have with Coach Woodson and T-Will is real."

The year prior, he totaled 15 stops, a pick, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and broke up a pass. In 2022, Wooden posted nine tackles including five solo stops.

He chose the Razorbacks over Derek Mason's Middle Tennessee State program and will have one year of eligibility remaining in Fayetteville. Wooden reached his decision following an enjoyable time on The Hill.

"It was good, I enjoyed myself," he said. "It was good seeing Coach T-Will and Woodson again and everything we talked about.

"It exceeded my expectations. I had something in mind that I thought it was going to be, but it exceeded my expectations."

The Hogs also hosted other transfer targets beginning Friday, in Maryland transfer offensive lineman Marcus Dumervil and Stanford transfer wide receiver Ismail Cisse.

Montana state junior transfer tight end Rohan Jones has signed with Arkansas, he announced Sunday.

A 6-foot-3, 235-pound native of Montreal, Quebec, in Canada, Jones caught 30 passes for 470 yards (15.7 AVG) and nine touchdowns in 2024. One of his top performances came against Idaho State on Sept. 28, when he made two grabs for 93 yards and a score.

Jones was named an honorable mention AP FCS All-American for his efforts, which included a three-catch, 19-yard, one-touchdown outing in the FCS Championship game against North Dakota State on Jan. 6.

Before his time at Montana State, Jones played two seasons with the Maine Bears (2022-23). There, he totaled 31 catches for 363 yards and seven touchdowns.

Since entering the transfer portal Wednesday, Jones has reported offers from Arkansas, Wake Forest, Houston, Louisville, UCLA, North Carolina and Kentucky.

Former Montana State tight end Rohan Jones has signed with the Arkansas Razorbacks, the school announced Sunday afternoon. Jones, 6-3, 245, played for the FCS runner-up team that lost to North Dakota State in last Monday's national championship game.

Jones chose the Hogs over North Carolina, Kentucky, Louisville, Houston, UCLA, Wake Forest and others.

He caught 30 balls for 470 yards and nine touchdowns in 2024, which included a 93-yard performance and a touchdown against Idaho State in September. Jones was recruited to Fayetteville by tight ends coach Morgan Turner, who also landed Texas A&M transfer Jaden Platt via the portal and Gavin Garretson of Chico (Calif.) Pleasant Valley by way of the December signing period for high school and junior college prospects. The Razorbacks are replacing three outgoing transfers in Luke Hasz, Ty Washington, and Var'keyes Gumms.

Arkansas is also in the mix for another potential late addition to the 2025 class in JUCO transfer Jeremiah Beck, who is expected to reach a final decision very soon after being released from his agreement with Nevada.

Rohan Jones isn't a physical marvel but he's a smart TE with good hands that has a knack for getting open. I don't think he has top tier SEC speed but if you use him right he would be a good possession TE and frankly we can use someone like that.

Chaffey College sophomore tight end Jeremiah Beck has committed to Arkansas, he announced Monday.

A 6-foot-4, 240-pound native of California, Beck caught 37 passes for 366 yards and four touchdowns during the 2024 season at the junior college level. He made 40 grabs for 485 yards and three scores in his debut year (2023).

Beck, a two-time First-Team All-Conference performer, originally signed with Nevada but received a release in January. He has also earned offers from New Mexico, Massachusetts, Toledo, Missouri State, Eastern Kentucky and others.

Following Beck's commitment, Arkansas now has six projected players at the tight end position for the 2025 roster.

Arkansas' 2025 signing class rose to 25 additions on Monday when JUCO tight end Jeremiah Beck of Chaffey College announced his next college destination.

Beck, 6-3, 245, initially signed with Nevada but was released of his agreement with the program. The California native was offered by Arkansas last Saturday and plans to officially enroll this week in Fayetteville with three years left to play two seasons. (There has been no official word yet on junior college targets regaining their eligibility from previous seasons.)

Beck was recruited to Arkansas by tight ends coach Morgan Turner, who also landed Texas A&M transfer Jaden Platt and Montana State transfer Rohan Jones via the portal and Gavin Garretson of Chico (Calif.) Pleasant Valley by way of the December signing period for high school and junior college prospects. The Razorbacks are replacing three outgoing transfers in Luke Hasz, Ty Washington, and Var'keyes Gumms.

The junior college target also held offers from Eastern Kentucky, Gardner-Webb, UMASS, Missouri State, New Mexico, Stephen F. Austin, and Toledo. Beck had 851 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns in his first two seasons

The Hogs' current tight end room returns only 35 combined receiving yards and two total touchdowns, which belong to Andreas Paaske and Shamar Easter.

Beck brings the Razorbacks' Class of 2025 to 25 additions, which now include 14 on the offensive side in quarterbacks Grayson Wilson and Madden Iamaleava, running backs Markeylin Batton and Cameron Settles, wide receivers Quentin Murphy, Antonio Jordan, Jace Brown and Ja'kayden Ferguson, Gavin Garretson at tight end, and offensive linemen Lionel Prudhomme, Blake Cherry, Kash Courtney, and Bubba Craig of the JUCO ranks.

Defensively, the Hogs added defensive linemen Kevin Oatis, Caleb Bell, Reginald Vaughn, Keiundre Johnson and Trent Sellers, linebackers Jayden Shelton and Tavion Wallace, and defensive backs Taijh Overton, Nigel Pringle and JUCO product Keshawn Davila. The Razorbacks also signed a kicker in Scott Starzyk.

Arkansas also has 20 new additions from the transfer portal, including 19 that will count against the scholarship total. The Razorbacks is welcoming most of their 2025 signing class - from high school, junior college and the transfer market - to campus this weekend and on Monday.

Only six of the Hogs' 2025 signees will not be joining the program this week, including Batton, Jordan, Prudhomme, Vaughn, Pringle and Sellers.
