Cal Poly’s **dual-threat QB** Jalen Hamler brings proven big-play upside
Hamler profiles as a **true dual-threat quarterback** with the kind of arm-and-legs package that can stress defenses in multiple ways; Cal Poly describes him as a QB who can “run” and “throw the ball down field,” and his prep résumé includes 4,372 passing yards, 49 passing TDs, 1,437 rushing yards, and 21 rushing TDs[2][5]. He also showed preseason buzz at Cal Poly in 2025 scrimmage coverage, which suggests he’s still viewed as a meaningful part of the quarterback picture[3]. He looks like a fit for teams that want athletic, off-script creation and explosive production, not a pure pocket passer[2][5].
