Alston Hooker brings dual-threat upside and veteran QB instincts back to NC A&T
Hooker is a **multi-year, dual-threat quarterback** whose best selling points are his instincts, pocket escape ability, and efficient flashes in limited action, including an 11-of-15, 159-yard, 1-TD relief outing for NC A&T in 2023 and a 25-of-35, 355-yard, 3-TD, 0-INT start as his spot workload expanded in 2024 reports. NC A&T’s roster bio says he has “good instincts,” knows where to go with the football, and can “escape the pocket,” while also noting an injury in spring could affect his availability. He fits teams looking for a poised, mobile QB with family pedigree and upside more than a finished product.[5][7][9][15]
