Baylor’s big-arm, big-play QB who could tilt a game in a hurry
In the 2016 season, Seth Russell showed why Baylor trusted him as a high-upside difference-maker: 2,126 passing yards, 20 passing touchdowns, 506 rushing yards, and 8 rushing scores, while Baylor noted he ranked nationally in total offense and passing efficiency. His calling card was a live arm and dual-threat juice, plus a proven Baylor résumé that included a 14-3 record as a starter and 60 career touchdown passes. The catch? Two season-ending injuries in consecutive years make durability the real red flag, so he’s a fit for teams willing to bet on talent and tolerate risk.
