Jared Lockhart looks like Jackson State’s rising dual-threat spark plug
In the 2025 season, Jared Lockhart emerged as a true freshman who can beat defenses with both his arm and legs, finishing with 1,187 passing yards, 8 passing touchdowns, 3 interceptions, and 189 rushing yards with 3 rushing scores in 7 games. He’s a 6-foot-4/6-foot-5 frame with real field-stretching upside, and the buzz is that he handled being thrown into the fire with poise, then turned it into a starting-caliber breakout heading into 2026. If your team wants a young QB with mobility, touch, and growth runway, he’s a very intriguing fit.
