Redshirt Freshman QB with Elite High School Pedigree and Backup Depth Role at UNC
Andres Miyares Jr. is a redshirt freshman quarterback for the North Carolina Tar Heels who redshirted the 2024 season without appearing in any games, preserving his eligibility while developing behind presumed frontrunner Gio Lopez. Standing 6'2" and 205 lbs, he brings elite high school credentials as a four-year starter, two-time team captain, and Miami-Dade all-county selection from Belen Jesuit, where he earned a three-star recruit rating. Though currently a backup, his physical maturity, leadership experience, and 6'2" frame make him a high-upside developmental prospect with the intensity and personality traits of a future leader. He’s not a fit for immediate starting roles but offers long-term value for teams seeking a QB with strong fundamentals and redshirt flexibility.
