Donald Clark Jr. gives Howard a QB room question mark, not a proven answer
Donald Clark Jr. does not appear in the accessible 2025 Howard football stat leaders, while Howard’s quarterback production has been driven by Tyriq Starks, who led the team with 749 passing yards in 2025; that makes Clark more of a depth or developmental piece than a known starter right now[4][5]. If he wins the job, the fit would hinge on whether he can bring steady decision-making and efficiency to a Howard offense that has leaned on a run-pass balance rather than elite aerial volume[10].
