Quinn Murphy brings Baylor a high-upside, high-volume arm with real dual-threat juice
In 2026, Baylor’s Quinn Murphy is a true freshman quarterback with elite high-school production, including 168 career passing touchdowns and a senior season that added 607 rushing yards and 6 scores, giving him a rare mix of passing polish and run-game stress on defenses. The big differentiator is his playmaking confidence: he’s not just a distributor, he can bend a defense with his legs and create outside structure, which makes him a fun developmental fit if a team wants ceiling over safety.
