veteran dual-threat QB with proven efficiency and big-play juice
In the 2018 season at Baylor, Jalan McClendon showed efficient, attack-minded quarterback play: 55-of-91 passing for 715 yards, 3 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions, plus 102 rushing yards and 2 rushing scores in nine games. His profile suggests a big-armed, mobile QB with workable accuracy and enough athleticism to stress defenses, and recruiting notes rate his arm strength as his best trait. The fit question is simple: if a team wants an experienced, athletic passer who can extend plays, McClendon is intriguing; if it wants a pure pocket surgeon, he’s more of a toolsy gamer than a finished product.
