Additionally, walk-on defensive back Obe Eyafe also announced his intentions. Also a redshirt freshman in 2025, Efaye did not appear in any games for the Gophers. The 6-foot-2 Eyafe was previously a standout at Andover High School in Andover, Minnesota.

With both players entering the portal, the Gophers' current roster features 97 players. However, the Gophers still will add 14, 2025 signees this upcoming summer, bringing their total roster count to 111. Minnesota and all FBS programs will need to cut their rosters to 105 total players by week one of the season.
