About Kessler Updated Jun 21, 2026

Cody Kessler brings elite accuracy and ball security to USC’s QB room

Kessler’s calling card is precision: at USC, he completed 67.9% of his career passes with 59 touchdowns and only 12 interceptions, including a stretch of 28 TDs in his last 7 games and just 6 picks in his past 18. He stood out for quick decision-making, consistent efficiency, and a low-turnover style that fits well in a timing-based offense. If you want a quarterback who minimizes mistakes and can sustain drives under pressure, he’s an appealing fit.
