Texas State QB Keldric Luster: Scrappy dual-threat with upside, but still fighting for a larger role
Keldric Luster entered 2025 as a Texas State transfer from SMU and was listed as the Bobcats’ backup QB behind Brad Jackson, so the arrow is more “developmental upside” than finished product right now[8][15]. In the 2025 season, he appeared in two games and posted 1 completion on 3 attempts for 14 passing yards, while also adding 14 rushing yards on 3 carries, which hints at a mobile, change-of-pace profile[2][12][14]. The most appealing part is his athletic floor and portal pedigree; the caution flag is that his passing sample has been very small so far, so he fits best for a team wanting a QB room piece with patience and upside[6][7].
