Alek Torgersen was Penn’s record-setting, high-efficiency QB engine
Alek Torgersen built his Penn legacy on accuracy, poise, and efficient offense: in the 2016 season, he led the Ivy League in completion percentage at 66.9% and finished with just four interceptions, while setting Penn career records for passing touchdowns (52) and total offense (7,937 yards). He also added real dual-threat value with 18 rushing touchdowns in his Penn career, giving defenses a second problem to solve. For a team wanting a smart, low-mistake quarterback who can extend drives and stay composed in pressure spots, that’s a very attractive profile.
