La’Michael Pettway has decided to become a graduate transfer and leave the Arkansas football team, according to an announcement on his Twitter feed Tuesday.

Pettway led the Razorbacks in receiving this past season with 30 catches (tied for most) for 499 yards (most) and four touchdowns (second most). He played in 12 games and made five starts, averaging a team-high 41.6 yards per contest, logging a season-long reception of 48 yards.

The in-state product put up multiple catches in nine games and hauled in at least four receptions in three of them.

In the season opener, Pettway teamed up with fellow wideout Jordan Jones to have a big production day, finishing with five catches for 93 yards and two touchdowns.
