Report: Oklahoma State Safety Cameron Epps Enters Transfer Portal

The Cowboys’ safety depth took another hit.

Cameron Epps has entered the transfer portal, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.

A 6-foot-2, 210-pound redshirt junior, Epps has played only 13 snaps this season, according to Pro Football Focus, with only one of those coming on defense.

Epps made 40 tackles for the Cowboys as a redshirt freshman in 2023, a year in which he picked off three passes. He housed one of those INTs against Kansas State shortly before the half of OSU’s 29-21 win, a victory that turned the tide in the Cowboys’ season.

He played in seven games last season before suffering an injury that would sideline him for the rest of the year. He made two starts in 2024, finishing the year with 11 tackles.

In 27 games as a Cowboy, Epps made 54 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss three interceptions and five pass breakups.

Epps was the No. 515 player in the 2022 recruiting class, according to the 247Sports Composite ranking. He chose Oklahoma State over offers from Arkansas, Kansas State, Louisville, Kansas, Boston College and others.

He’s the latest Cowboy to enter the portal, made possible by the 30-day window that opened for OSU players when Mike Gundy was fired. Many of those portal entries have been safeties, as of this Epps report joins other reports of David Kabongo, Dylan Smith and DeAndre Boykins doing the same. The Cowboys have also lost others, like starting tight end Josh Ford who confirmed his departure, in the wake of Gundy’s dismissal.

The secondary was one of OSU’s deeper position groups going into the season, but with each passing portal entry, that depth gets further and further tested. It’s on guys like Parker Robertson, Kenneth Harris, Mordecai McDaniel and Landyn Cleveland to hold things down on the back end moving forward.
