The Kansas State football team continues to bolster its roster with incoming transfers, securing their fifth commitment of the week on Thursday. Wide receiver Caleb Medford announced he will be joining coach Chris Klieman’s program. Medford, standing at 6-foot-1 and weighing 198 pounds, began his college career at TCU but made a bigger impact during his time at New Mexico.
Over the past two seasons with the Lobos, Medford accumulated 48 catches for 887 yards and five touchdowns. He entered the transfer portal after delivering standout performances this past season, including a 91-yard game against New Mexico State. Medford also caught touchdown passes against notable opponents like Arizona, Auburn, and Washington State.
Originally from Henderson, Texas, Medford spent his first two seasons at TCU, where he appeared in five games but did not record any catches. Despite this, he brings valuable Big 12 experience to the Wildcats. Kansas State will be counting on Medford to compete for immediate playing time as they look to replace key departures at wide receiver, including Keagan Johnson, Tre Spivey, Dante Cephas, and Ty Bowman.

With Medford’s commitment, the Wildcats have now added 12 transfers during the current recruiting cycle. Medford joins a growing list of transfers, including Jerand Bradley (Boston College), Gabe Ervin (Nebraska), Amarion Fortenberry (South Alabama), Gunner Maldonado (Arizona), Mar’Quavious Moss (West Georgia), Gabe Powers (Ohio State), Jayshawn Ross (Alabama), Jayden Rowe (Oklahoma), Brandon Sneh (Wagner), Amos Talalele (USC), and Jaron Tibbs (Purdue).
