Denzel Gardner brings a live arm and dual-threat juice to Southern Miss
Gardner is a freshman QB at Southern Miss with a pocket-passer label but real mobility, pairing solid size (6'0”, 215) with quickness, run-threat value, and a strong throwing profile in EA Sports ratings (85 throw power, 82 short accuracy, 79 on the run). He was a highly productive, efficient high-school starter at DeMatha, where he helped win a WCAC title and was praised for taking care of the football and keeping the offense on schedule. For a team, he looks like a developmental fit with upside if you want a poised, efficient passer who can also extend plays.[10][17][18][2]
