The 2026 NFL Draft is now in the books. Three USC players heard their names called, with several more signing with teams as undrafted free agents.

In addition, four players who spent time with the Trojans before transferring to other schools were selected in the draft. Let’s take a look at where they landed:

Height played college football for four different schools, including a stint at USC in 2022 and 2023. After an impressive 2025 season at Texas Tech, the San Francisco 49ers took the defensive lineman in the third round of the NFL Draft.

Branch played wide receiver for the Trojans for two years, but transferred to Georgia last offseason. The Atlanta Falcons selected him in the third round of the draft, one pick before former USC teammate Ja’Kobi Lane went to the Baltimore Ravens.

Pregnon spent three years at Wyoming, before transferring to USC in 2023 and starting two years on the offensive line for the Trojans. He initially revealed his plans to return to USC for his sixth year of eligibility in 2025, before reversing course and transferring to Oregon. After a year in Eugene, he is now headed to the Jacksonville Jaguars as a third round pick, where he will reunite with former USC teammate Jonah Monheim.

Jackson played cornerback for USC in 2022 and 2023 before spending the past two seasons at Alabama. The Green Bay Packers selected him in the sixth round.

After four years at USC in which he started ten games at quarterback for the Trojans, Moss transferred to Louisville for the 2025 season. He was not selected in the draft, but did sign with the Chicago Bears as an undrafted free agent, where he will reunite with former USC teammate Caleb Williams.
