Gavin Lockett brings dual-threat upside and local-star pedigree to Northern Colorado
Lockett is an intriguing **dual-threat quarterback** whose high school production suggests real playmaking upside: he threw for over 4,000 career yards and added 2,903 rushing yards with 48 rushing touchdowns, and Northern Colorado lists him as a sophomore QB after he did not appear in games in 2025. He stands out for his ability to create explosive plays with both his arm and legs, plus the kind of leadership that earned him Colorado 4A Player of the Year honors and a strong local following. He looks like a fit for a program that values mobility, toughness, and development potential.
