The Aggies have added another piece to their 2026 defensive roster today with the commitment of San Diego State EDGE Ryan Henderson from the transfer portal.

He's the ninth addition for Mike Elko and staff during this January window.

A product of Canyon Springs High School in Las Vegas, Nevada, the 6-foot-3, 255-pounder has shown a steady progression during his collegiate career. He appeared in only five games as a freshman in 2023. However, his role greatly increased in the following two campaigns. As a sophomore, he was in nine contests and logged 2.5 sacks. Last fall, he broke out as a force in the Mountain West, recording nine tackles for loss and seven sacks.

In his career, Henderson has accumulated 12.5 TFLs and 10.5 sacks.

He comes to Aggieland with one year of eligibility remaining.

Keep it here. We'll provide updates on the latest happenings in the transfer portal, as well as more info on the Maroon & White's latest newcomer, for our TexAgs Premium subscribers.

With our S&C program, he'll probably play at around 270 lbs next year

Only time will tell, but anytime texags gives you their "career" totals vs what they did last year, it gives you pause.

In Elko I trust…especially on D

Good looking player!

You'd think we'd have learned something from this past year about undersized DE's and trying to stop the run, which we didn't down the stretch…..
Oh well…..

I still trust Elko…..
