Ohio’s steady backup QB with real-system trust
Papas enters 2026 as a redshirt sophomore for Ohio, but his main value is trust: the staff says he knows the offense and was close to being next man up in the 2025 bowl game. Listed at 5-11 and around 185-192 pounds, he’s more of a compact, efficient system fit than a flashy traits bet, and the appeal is poise, readiness, and continuity rather than proven game stats. He’s a good fit if your team wants a quarterback who can absorb the playbook, compete in the room, and keep the operation clean.
