Griffin Scalf is the Saints’ steady-but-still-growing QB with real arm volume and a breakout ceiling
In the 2025 season, Griffin Scalf showed durability and volume for Thomas More, throwing for 995 yards while appearing in 7 games, and he enters 2026 as a 6-3, 225-pound redshirt junior with a starter’s frame and experience[2][3]. His biggest calling card is experience in the offense and the ability to handle a heavy workload, but the efficiency numbers tell the story of a developing passer: in 2025 he completed 48% of his throws with 1 touchdown, and in the early 2026 sample he has 31 completions, 224 yards, 0 TDs, and 3 INTs[2][1][10]. He fits best with a staff that wants a tough, in-the-pocket operator and is willing to invest in polish, timing, and decision-making rather than expecting instant fireworks[1][2].
