Xavier Arline brings Navy a rare two-sport engine at QB
Arline is a high-motor, multi-sport Navy quarterback whose value goes beyond his 2023 football line of 320 passing yards, 2 touchdowns, a 52.3% completion rate, and a 119.3 passer rating, because he also adds athletic versatility and competitive toughness from playing attack on the lacrosse team.[1][5][9] He has experience starting games for the Midshipmen and, in action during the 2023-24 football season, started the last five games he played in, which points to a player coaches can trust in meaningful spots.[5] For a team, he fits best as a scrappy, adaptable option who can handle pressure and bring uncommon leadership and versatility, even if his passing profile is still more workmanlike than explosive.[1][5][7]
