Greenlee’s arm talent flashed at UTEP, but inconsistency and injuries capped the ceiling
Zack Greenlee was a high-variance UTEP quarterback whose best stretch came in 2016, when he opened with 229 yards and 3 touchdowns in a win over New Mexico State, then finished his Miners career with 1,513 passing yards and 9 touchdowns across 11 starts after transferring from Fresno State. His appeal was clear: he could push the ball downfield, handle a starter’s workload, and add a little rushing value, but he also dealt with an MCL injury and streaky efficiency, which made him more of a hit-or-miss bet than a steady engine.
