Destin Wade gives North Alabama a dual-threat spark at QB
In the 2026 season, Destin Wade has been a productive, efficient starter for North Alabama, completing 13 of 19 passes for 229 yards, 1 touchdown, and 0 interceptions while also adding 18 rushing yards in early action. He’s a legit dual-threat with a sturdy 6-foot-3, 225-pound frame, and he was named the Lions’ starter before fall camp, which tells you the staff trusts his command. The fit is obvious for teams that want athletic QB play with upside; the question is whether his passing volume and consistency keep climbing.
