Texas A&M cornerback transfer Cobey Sellers has committed to Vanderbilt out of the NCAA transfer portal, On3 has learned. Sellers was a true freshman in 2025 with four years of eligibility remaining.

“Let’s work,” he said on social media. He chose to play for Clark Lea and Vanderbilt over the likes of Kentucky, SMU, California and Arkansas.

Before college, Sellers was rated as a highly-touted four-star recruit in the 2025 class according to the Rivals Industry Rankings, which is a a proprietary algorithm that compiles ratings and rankings from all four primary recruiting media services. He was the No. 280 overall player, as well as the No. 35 cornerback.

He’s leaving Texas A&M team that recently had its season ended at home in the College Football Playoff. Losing to Miami 10-3, Texas A&M’s season finishes with an 11-2 overall record which included wins in their first 11 matchups. It was the best start to a season for Texas A&M since 1992, when they finished the regular season with a 12-0 record.

Now, he’ll transfer across the SEC to play for the Commodores. Vanderbilt has been one of the many teams that have benefitted from the current landscape of college athletics. Sellers is another piece to that effort in 2026.

Sellers joins a rising Vanderbilt team that won 10 regular season games in 2025. They were in the thick of the College Football Playoff race for the first time under head coach Clark Lea.

Vanderbilt has won 17 games over the past two seasons under Lea. In comparison, the first three years of Lea’s tenure saw the Commodores compile a record of 9-27, including two different 2-10 seasons. This coincided with the arrival of Diego Pavia from the NCAA transfer portal, and he was a Heisman Trophy finalist as a result.
