Lamar’s undersized, steady QB with upside as a developmental spark
Lucas Powell enters the 2026 season as a sophomore QB for Lamar, listed at 5-foot-9 and 189 pounds, and his profile screams developmental depth with live-arm potential rather than finished-product hype. In 2025, he saw limited action, completing 2 of 3 passes for 11 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions, so the stat sheet is tiny—but the fit question is more about traits than volume. His compact build and in-system consistency make him an intriguing option if a staff wants a quick decision-maker and a player who can grow into more snaps.
