Stamps, who started every game for the Tigers at cornerback last season, plans on sitting out the rest of this year and eventually entering the transfer portal, according to On3 Sports. Stamps has only played 18 snaps this season after playing over 700 last season, according to Pro Football Focus. He did not travel with the team to Nashville last weekend. Along with Stamps, fifth-year senior safety Jardin Gilbert also didn't join the team on its trip to Vanderbilt. Gilbert has only played 48 snaps this season, per PFF. "We're trying to protect them. Both of them," Kelly said Monday. "They both have played in three games. So if we can, in fact, protect their year, we would try to. This would be a week where they could play their fourth game and still maintain eligibility."
