Big-bodied Indiana QB with real comeback upside
Tyler Cherry is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound Indiana quarterback whose appeal is built on arm talent, size, and resilience: after missing all of 2025 with a knee injury and spending part of that year as a student assistant, he returned to spring work in 2026 and was described by Curt Cignetti as showing significant progress. His recruiting résumé also points to efficiency and production, including a 65% completion rate and 22 touchdowns in his prep profile. He looks like a developmental fit for a team betting on upside, toughness, and long-term growth rather than instant polish.
