Jack Layne brings high-upside arm talent and proven production to New Mexico
In the 2025 season, Layne started all 13 games for New Mexico and threw for 2,486 yards with 13 touchdowns while setting the school single-season completion percentage record at 65.1%, showing efficient passing and real downfield playmaking.[1][4] He also added 152 rushing yards and 4 rushing touchdowns, so he is not just a pocket distributor—he can extend drives and punish defenses when plays break down.[1] The main caveat is turnovers, as he also had 10 interceptions, but his combination of size, poise, and explosive-game ability makes him a strong fit for teams that want a competitive, high-volume QB who can operate in rhythm and create outside structure.[1][7]
