GREENVILLE, N.C. (WITN)—East Carolina Wide Receiver Chase Sowell announced on Monday that he is leaving the Pirates and entering the transfer portal via X.
Sowell shared his gratitude with Pirate Nation, stating, “Thank you for all the support and making me feel welcomed. This place and you guys will forever have a piece of my heart here.”
The redshirt sophomore recorded 34 catches, 678 receiving yards, and three touchdowns this season over nine games, missing three due to injuries. Last year, after redshirting at Colorado, he had 47 receptions, 622 yards, and one touchdown in a full 12-game season.
Sowell has two years of eligibility remaining as he joins Winston Wright Jr. (who is out of eligibility) in leaving the receiving corps. In November, East Carolina extended an offer to Sowell’s younger brother, Hunter, who has not yet committed to a school.
