One of the Kansas State Wildcats' most explosive offensive options from last season won't be with the team in 2014.
Quarterback turned wide receiver Daniel Sams confirmed with ESPN.com through Twitter message Monday night that he will be transferring from Kansas State after the semester.
GoPowercat.com first broke the news through Sams' mother.
After backing up Heisman finalist Collin Klein during the Wildcats' Big 12 championship run in 2012, Sams spent much of last season splitting snaps at quarterback with juco transfer Jake Waters.
Sams wound up leading all Big 12 quarterbacks with 807 yards rushing, which ranked ninth overall in the league. But during K-State's late-season surge, which included wins in six of its seven final games, Waters gradually took over the full-time job, pushing Sams to the sideline.
In the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl against Michigan, Sams only attempted one pass.
To get back on the field, he requested a position change to receiver during the offseason. But he had only two grabs for nine yards in K-State's spring game.
