Lineman commits to Georgia Tech out of the transfer portal

Offensive lineman Jordan Brown announced Friday that he is transferring to Georgia Tech.

Brown, a 6-foot-4, 315-pound lineman from Long Beach, Calif., played at Charlotte this season before he entered the transfer portal. Brown redshirted in the 2021 season and has three seasons of eligibility remaining. Brown played in seven games for the 49ers this season.

Tech signed six players from the portal Dec. 21, the first day of the early signing period, but Brown is the first offensive lineman signed out of the portal in this cycle. Tech listed five offensive linemen among the 19 high school players who signed in December.
