Georgia State’s Efficient Dual-Threat Leader and Big-Game QB
Ellington is best known as a poised, efficient dual-threat quarterback who finished his Georgia State career with a school-best 62.0% completion rate, 34 passing touchdowns, and 4,566 passing yards, while also adding 12 rushing scores. In 2019, he was especially dangerous in Sun Belt play, ranking near the top of the conference in passing yards per game, passer efficiency, and total offense before a knee injury interrupted his season. The big differentiator: he produced in key moments, including Georgia State’s signature upset of Tennessee, showing toughness, composure, and enough mobility to stress defenses.
