Rodgers, a redshirt junior, has already graduated from USC, and he has one year of eligibility remaining. He has been plagued with injuries throughout his career, and his latest injury was a concussion suffered against Notre Dame.
Rodgers started six games at center last season and three games at guard in 2014. He is the fourth USC player to transfer this season, following quarterback Max Browne's transfer to Pitt, as well as linemen E.J. Price and Noah Jefferson earlier this season.
