Donovan Leary brings a live arm and creator traits to Tulane’s QB room
Leary is a 6-foot-2, 215-pound redshirt junior transfer who has only logged limited FBS action so far—two games and five passes for Illinois in 2024—but his profile is built around upside: EA SPORTS rates him with strong throw power (87), solid short-area accuracy (83), and above-average mobility traits for a quarterback. He fits best as a developmental, high-upside option rather than a proven production machine, which makes him intriguing if you want a QB who can grow into an offense and add value with his arm talent, movement, and toughness.
