2025 Pass/Rush Projections

Throws four TDs, but to what end?
Nelson went 14-for-26 for 278 yards and four touchdowns against UT Martin on Saturday. He also lost a fumble.
ANALYSIS
Nelson, once a top prospect, is finally a college starter on his third team. His first start, against Utah State, was subpar. While Nelson did throw four touchdowns, this was against an FCS team. It also took him 26 passes to get to 278 yards and he lost a fumble. His QPR was 53.2. This is hardly enough to quiet the detractors.
