UC Davis QB Grant Harper: efficient backup with clean decision-making
Grant Harper is a 6-foot-2, 200-pound pro-style quarterback who showed real upside in 2025 for UC Davis, throwing for 261 yards, 3 touchdowns, and just 2 interceptions on limited attempts. His calling card is efficiency and ball security rather than volume, which suggests a steady, low-mistake style that can fit a team needing a composed distributor. Because he has not yet logged a full-time starter’s workload, the biggest question is ceiling and durability under bigger game pressure, but the early returns point to a reliable, system-friendly QB who can grow into more.
