Rhode Island QB Robert Bentsen was a high-efficiency, dual-threat local standout
Bentsen’s calling card was efficient passing with enough mobility to stress defenses, highlighted by a senior season at Warwick Veterans of 2,162 passing yards, 24 passing touchdowns, and 650 rushing yards with six more scores, before carrying that local-star momentum to Rhode Island.[6][9] At URI, he quickly made history as the first Rhode Island native to start at quarterback for the Rams in decades and responded with a 278-yard, three-touchdown win over Delaware, showing poise in high-leverage moments.[3] He looks like a fit for teams that value accuracy, leadership, and red-zone playmaking over pure arm talent.[3][6]
