Jarrett Stidham

Stidham's first season on The Plains was a major success. He showcased his accuracy, owning a 66.5 percent completion rate and throwing for 3,158 yards and 18 touchdowns with just six picks. He also demonstrated his ability to get it done on the ground when necessary, rushing for four scores and 153 yards, although he lost four fumbles. Stidham's running backs from 2017 are gone, but he should have a plethora of fresh options out of the backfield, including Kam Martin, Asa Martin, and JaTarvious Whitlow: he'll also have three of his top targets returning at wideout, so he'll definitely have some weapons at his disposal. Stidham will head into his second season with in a well-designed offense that mixes high-percentage throws with deep shots to keep defenses off balance. He figures to compile yet another solid season under center as the Tigers look to make a run to the College Football Playoff.
