Oregon Ducks land Nevada kicker Keaton Emmett in transfer portal

The Oregon Ducks have been relatively quiet in the transfer portal while they prepare for the College Football Playoff semifinals against the Indiana Hoosiers . However, they have picked up a pair of commitments in the specialists category.

Earlier this week, Oregon landed a commitment from Nevada Wolfpack punter Bailey Ettridge , and now they have picked up Nevada kicker Keaton Emett as well.

Emmett is a Lake Oswego native and averaged 63.3 yards on 48 kickoffs with an 81.25% touchback rate this season and has two years of eligibility remaining. In 2024, while playing at Western Oregon, he was 12 of 18 on field goals, with a long of 48 yards, and had 13 touchbacks on 52 kickoffs.

Emmett did not attempt any field goals or extra points with Nevada in 2025, but will come to Oregon primarily as a kick-off specialist, replacing Atticus Sappington, who is out of eligibility following this season.
