Dynamic, dual-threat Washington QB who was a true playmaker
Stanback’s 2006 Washington season showed why he stood out: he threw for 1,325 yards and 10 touchdowns while adding 350 rushing yards and 4 scores, giving the Huskies a quarterback who could create plays both in and out of structure.[6] His value went beyond box scores — Washington’s official profile notes he had already battled through multiple trials during his college and pro career, which adds context to his resilience and competitive toughness.[12] He fits best as a high-upside, athletic QB who can stress defenses with mobility and toughness, though his mixed passing efficiency suggests he was more playmaker than polished passer.[6][8][13]
