Huot joined the Grizzlies in 2022 and redshirted that fall. He did not see any game action in 2023 and played in just one game in 2024, completing 1 of 2 passes against Morehead State.
Montana also lost receiver Sawyer Racanelli to the NCAA transfer portal on Thursday and announced the additions of transfers Korbin Hendrix and and Elijawah Tolbert.
