SALT LAKE CITY — Former BYU defensive end Devin Kaufusi will continue his college career about 45 miles to the north, as he announced on Twitter he is transferring to Utah.
Kaufusi, who has completed two years of eligibility, entered the transfer portal in March.
“Pleased to announce that I have officially committed to the University of Utah,” Kaufusi tweeted Wednesday afternoon. “There I will further my football career and education. Thank you @CoachPowell99 @UtahCoachWhitt @SafetyPride @Utah_Football UTAH MAN AM I.”

He is the younger brother of former BYU defensive ends Bronson and Corbin Kaufusi — both now with the New York Jets — and son of former BYU defensive line coach Steve Kaufusi, who also played for the Cougars.
Devin Kaufusi, a Timpview High alum, played in 25 games over the past two seasons after serving two years in the Alpine-German speaking mission in Europe for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. During his two seasons with the Cougars, Kaufusi had 15 tackles, one sack, a quarterback hurry and two pass breakups. He played the 2018 season with brother Corbin.
The Utes will be looking to replace three of four starters on the defensive line due to graduation, with Leki Fotu, Bradlee Anae and John Penisini gone. Utah signed a pair of local four-star defensive ends — Corner Canyon’s Van Fillinger and Juan Diego’s Xavier Carlton — in its 2020 recruiting class.
