Gabarri Johnson brings dual-threat juice to Oregon State’s QB room
Johnson’s value is his **athletic, dual-threat profile**: in 2025 he completed 61 of 99 passes for 503 yards with 2 touchdowns and 3 interceptions, while adding 119 rushing yards and a rushing score for Oregon State.[9][13] He showed he can change a game with his legs and create explosiveness in relief, which makes him a useful fit for a system that wants quarterback run stress and off-script playmaking.[5][9] The caution: his passing efficiency and turnover production are still developing, so the upside is more about dynamic traits than polished, week-to-week consistency.[9][10]
