proven, efficient dual-threat leader who powered UT Martin’s title run
Dent is a high-volume, high-leverage quarterback whose 2024 season showed clear two-way value: 2,505 passing yards, 21 passing TDs, 7 rushing TDs, and just 7 interceptions while starting all 14 games for a UT Martin team that won its fourth straight conference title and reached the FCS playoffs.[3][8] His best fit is a system that wants a poised distributor with enough mobility to punish defenses when they overplay the pass; UT Martin’s release also notes improved efficiency, program record-level production across two seasons, and a rookie minicamp invite from the Jaguars, which suggests evaluators see real pro-style traits beyond the box score.[8][10]
