Brady Cook: In line to join Jets
Cook is slated to sign with the Jets as an undrafted free agent, Kyle Helms of ABC reports.
Cook should head to New York after completing 201 of his 321 pass attempts for 2535 yards, 11 touchdowns and two interceptions in addition to carrying the ball 87 times for 223 yards and five touchdowns during his final season at Missouri.

Seth Henigan QB | IND
Seth Henigan: In line to sign with Jags
Henigan is slated to sign with the Jaguars as an undrafted free agent, Raven Moore of WREG Memphis reports.
Henigan started four seasons at Memphis and set records with both 14,266 passing yards and 104 passing touchdowns. The 22-year-old signal-caller is a solid athlete who plays with poise when facing pressure. While he typically makes the right decision, his arm strength is merely average. Henigan will compete with Nick Mullens and John Wolford to be Trevor Lawrence's backup in 2025.

Max Brosmer QB | MIN
Vikings' Max Brosmer: Sticking in Minnesota
Brosmer is signed with the Vikings as an undrafted free agent.
Brosmer played five seasons at New Hampshire before transferring to Minnesota for his final season. The 24-year-old quarterback put together an adequate campaign, completing 66.5 percent of his passes for 2,828 yards, 18 touchdowns and six interceptions. He doesn't offer much as a runner, and he'll look to prove himself in training camp and earn the No. 3 role behind J.J. McCarthy and Sam Howell.

DJ Uiagalelei QB | LAC
DJ Uiagalelei: Intends to sign with Chargers
Uiagalelei is slated to sign with the Chargers as an undrafted free agent, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
Uiagalelei finished his five-year college career in Florida State in 2024 after transferring from Clemson. He completed 53.8 percent of his passes for 1,065 yards, four touchdowns and six interceptions in five games for the Seminoles before suffering a season-ending injury to his right hand. Uiagalelei will have the opportunity to compete against Taylor Heinicke and Trey Lance for the Chargers' backup quarterback role behind Justin Herbert during OTAs and training camp.

Quinn Ewers QB | MIA
Dolphins' Quinn Ewers: Round 7 pick by Dolphins
The Dolphins selected Ewers in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 231st overall.
Ewers transferred to Texas after a year at Ohio State and started three years for the Longhorns, posting his best to date in 2025 to the tune of 3,472 passing yards and a 31:12 TD:INT ratio over 14 games, earning him Second Team All-SEC. He elected to bypass his final season of college eligibility to turn pro due to Arch Manning waiting in the wings in Austin, and he finally heard his name called in the final round of the draft. Ewers was a high-profile recruit coming out of high school and has battled through injuries throughout his career; however, he possesses some intriguing traits as a development project. He'll slot into a depth role behind Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson in Miami and will aim to prove his worth in training camp.

Kurtis Rourke QB | SF
49ers' Kurtis Rourke: Bay Area bound
The 49ers selected Rourke (knee) in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 227th overall.
Rourke followed in his brother Nathan's footsteps and started his college career at Ohio, where he was a productive three-year starter. He got himself onto the NFL radar after transferring to Indiana and leading the Hoosiers to an improbable run to the College Football Playoff. Rourke threw for 3,042 yards, 29 touchdowns and five interceptions with Indiana. What's more, he showed remarkable toughness by playing the whole season on a torn ACL. Injuries were unfortunately a large part of Rourke's college story with multiple ACL injuries. He projects as a high-level backup in the NFL and should be ready for the start of the season after undergoing knee surgery in January.

Cam Miller QB | MIA
Raiders' Cam Miller: Lands with Las Vegas
The Raiders selected Miller in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 215th overall.
Miller took over the reins from Trey Lance at North Dakota State and had a successful career for the Bison. He led them to an FCS national title in 2024, throwing for 3,251 yards and 33 touchdowns against just four picks. Miller also has wheels with a whopping 48 rushing touchdowns to his credit. At 6-foot-1 and 215 pounds, Miller doesn't possess NFL starter tools but projects to be a backup that can stick in the league.

Graham Mertz QB | HOU
Texans' Graham Mertz: Joins Houston in sixth round
The Texans selected Mertz in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 197th overall.
At one time, Mertz was considered a major quarterback prospect. He enrolled at Wisconsin as one of the top-rated quarterbacks in his recruiting class. Mertz never quite matched the hype in Madison, though, and transferred to Florida. He posted a 20:3 TD:INT in his first season at Florida in 2023 and had his final season cut short by an injury after five games. Given that he's a sixth-round pick going to Houston, Mertz projects as the QB3 behind C.J. Stroud and Davis Mills, at best.

Riley Leonard QB | IND
Colts' Riley Leonard: Indy picks up QB in sixth round
The Colts selected Leonard in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 189th overall.
Leonard started for two seasons at Duke in 2022 and 2023 before transferring to Notre Dame in 2024, where he posted a career-best 66.7 completion percentage on 269-for-403 passing, racking up 2,861 passing yards and a 21:8 TD:INT ratio. While Leonard doesn't have lightning speed, he's certainly mobile, racking up 900 rushing yards and a Fighting Irish single-season record for rushing scores in a season with 17. There are still some questions surrounding his ability to push the ball down the field consistently. However, he fits nicely into Shane Steichen's offense behind uber-athletic Anthony Richardson, who's had his problems staying healthy early in his career. Leonard likely fits in behind Daniel Jones, an offseason acquisition by the Colts, as the potential third-string quarterback.

Will Howard QB | PIT
Steelers' Will Howard: Opportunity knocks in Pittsburgh
The Steelers selected Howard in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 185th overall.
The Steelers waited until late in the draft to address quarterback but still ended up with a decent prospect in Howard. Before leading Ohio State to a national championship in 2024, Howard started parts of four seasons at Kansas State. He didn't have nearly the pass-catching talent at K-State that he had in Columbus, and that's borne out in the numbers -- Howard completed 58.8 percent of his passes at a 7.4 YPA clip. Howard was helped dramatically by the supporting cast at Ohio State and posted a 73 percent completion rate and 9.5 YPA while tossing 35 touchdowns in 16 games. Howard is a big (6-foot-4, 236 pounds) and athletic quarterback who can run. He doesn't possess elite arm talent but is a good processor and is poised. In a situation like Pittsburgh's with no established starter, it wouldn't be shocking for Howard to compete for a starting job. And as a fun aside, Howard actually competed for playing time with fellow Steeler Skylar Thompson while they were at Kansas State.
