Avery Johnson’s dual-threat upside makes him a high-ceiling QB prospect
Avery Johnson is a dynamic Kansas State quarterback whose biggest differentiator is his ability to impact games both as a passer and as a runner; in a highlighted performance vs. Arizona, he threw for 156 yards and 2 touchdowns while adding 110 rushing yards, showing the kind of dual-threat strain defenses must solve. Evaluators see real draftable talent, with early 2026 projections placing him around the fourth round and among the better underclassman quarterbacks, but his stock still depends on refining consistency as a passer.
