Scouting Verdict

Veteran insurance with real starting reps — threw for 1,253 yards at Coastal Carolina in 2025 but with a rough 6-to-7 TD-to-INT line, and lands as QB3 behind Bailey and Wilson. A dual-threat caretaker if pressed, not a draft projection.

Ceiling · 4.1

Career reserve (QB3) — limited opportunity caps the ceiling; close to ceiling (+0.1) · ACC draft-temper · QB premium.

Floor · 3.4

Some college production — moderate floor; downside −0.6.
