Several Hogs sign free agent deals following NFL Draft
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Isaac TeSlaa and Landon Jackson heard their names called on Friday night in the third round with the 70th and 72nd overall picks by Detroit and Buffalo respectively.
Below is a list of free agent signings from the Razorbacks:
Andrew Armstrong – Miami Dolphins
Armstrong led the Southeastern Conference in receiving yards (1,140) and receptions (78) last season and solidified himself as one of the best receivers in the nation’s premiere conference, earning First-Team All-SEC honors from the Associated Press and second-team recognition from the league’s coaches.
He became the first Arkansas pass catcher to earn First-Team AP All-SEC honors since Treylon Burks in 2021 and just the sixth Hogs’ wide receiver to do so since entering the SEC in 1992. Armstrong, who began his career at East Texas A&M (formerly known as Texas A&M-Commerce), ranks second all-time on the Arkansas single-season receiving yards list and single-season receptions list while finishing his career with a 39-game reception streak which ranked first among all SEC pass catchers and sixth nationally. His five 100+ yard receiving games in 2024 were the most since Treylon Burks had six in 2021.
Tyrone Broden – Seattle Seahawks
In two years at Arkansas, Broden caught 30 passes for 306 yards and four scores. Prior to joining the Razorbacks, he spent three seasons at Bowling Green State where he caught 74 passes for 1,199 yards and 12 touchdowns. He also served as a key member of the Hogs’ special teams in his two seasons. He impressed scouts at Arkansas’ Pro Day, running a 4.3 40-yard dash.
Hudson Clark – Las Vegas Raiders
Clark was a mainstay in the Arkansas secondary since his breakout game against Ole Miss in 2020 when he intercepted three passes. Despite starting his career as a walk-on, Clark played in 55 games with 36 starts, making 224 tackles with six picks over an impressive five-year career. In 2022, he earned First-Team All-SEC honors from USA Today after the most productive season of his career with 67 tackles and an interception. In 2023, he became just the 21st Razorback in school history to be named a First-Team Academic All-American after playing in all 12 games with 10 starts at multiple positions. That same year he was a semifinalist for the prestigious Campbell Trophy, commonly known as the Academic Heisman Trophy. He was a two-time member of the National Football Foundation’s Hampshire Society.
Clark joins former Hog Dalton Wagner on Raiders’ roster.
Eric Gregory – Cincinnati Bengals
Gregory was a stalwart on the Arkansas defensive line throughout his career. The Memphis native played in 61 games with 44 starts over six seasons, making 135 tackles including 18.5 tackles for loss and 9.5 sacks. His ability to stay on the field was incredibly impressive highlighted by playing in 52 straight games with 24 consecutive starts to end his career.
Ja’Quinden Jackson – Jacksonville Jaguars
In just one season on The Hill, Jackson earned All-SEC second team recognition from the Associated Press. Jackson led the Hogs with 790 yards and 15 touchdowns in just 10 games. His 15 rushing touchdowns ranked third in the SEC and 13th nationally. His 15 rushing touchdowns matched the sixth most in a single season by a Razorback and were the most by an Arkansas ball carrier since Alex Collins rushed for a program-record 20 during the 2015 season. The Dallas, Texas product’s four multi-rushing touchdown games were also the most since Collins logged five multi-rushing touchdown games in 2015.
Jackson was one of three former Hogs to ink with the Jaguars, joining Keivie Rose and Doneiko Slaughter.
Marquise Robinson – Baltimore Ravens
Robinson was a solid contributor in his lone season at Arkansas after transferring from South Alabama. He played in 12 games with one interception and 36 tackles. Combined with his time at South Alabama, he made 100 tackles with four picks during his college career.
Keivie Rose – Jacksonville Jaguars
After transferring from Louisiana Tech, Rose played two seasons at Arkansas. With the Hogs, he played in all 25 games with 24 tackles including 4.5 tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks. At La Tech, he played in 35 games making 73 stops with 10 TFLs and 3.5 sacks.
Doneiko Slaughter – Jacksonville Jaguars
Slaughter made an impact in his one season at Arkansas after joining the team from Tennessee. Slaughter played in all 13 for the Hogs, making 80 tackles with three tackles for loss and one interception. His 80 stops were second on the team behind only Xavian Sorey Jr. Slaughter made 167 total tackles in his college career, including 8.5 tackles for loss.
