Penn State football wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith transferred to Auburn Wednesday, he announced on Twitter.

The wideout entered the transfer portal after missing the Blue-White Game despite being on the roster.

Lambert-Smith was the Nittany Lions’ top receiver for the 2023 season, but his production took a dramatic hit after the firing of Mike Yurcich. In his last three games, the Norfolk, Virginia, native recorded just 22 yards.

Despite the slump at the end of the season, Lambert-Smith managed 53 receptions for 673 yards during the 2023 campaign, beating his career-high of 521 yards in 2021. Lambert-Smith leaves Penn State with 1,721 yards on 126 career receptions.

Lambert-Smith is the sixth Nittany Lion to leave the program since the end of the 2023 campaign and was the first to enter the portal during the spring window. Wide receiver Malick Meiga also announced he entered the portal in April.
