Elite Accuracy & Low-Interception QB Now in NFL
Behren Morton, the Texas Tech Red Raiders QB selected by the New England Patriots in the 2026 NFL Draft (Rd 7, Pk 234), is a differentiator defined by elite accuracy and football IQ: in his 2025 senior season, he led the Big 12 with a 66.0% completion rate, threw 22 TDs to only 6 INTs (a 22-to-4 career TD-to-INT ratio before the playoff), and protected the ball better than any prior season. His 2024 junior year saw 3,335 yards and 27 TDs, marking the first Texas Tech QB since 2017 to hit 3,000 yards. Though his college career ended with a poor playoff performance, his intensity, emotional realization of his season’s end, and consistency make him a high-fit, low-risk QB for any team seeking reliability over flash. He’s not just a stat leader—he’s a leader who thrives under pressure.
