He’s got only 1 job…get into Gracie hunts pants.
That accomplished he’s a winner

I don’t think he will start over Mahomes

At least Nuss got drafted, unlike Pavia.

That's just criminal. But like Nuss always reminded us...it's a God thang. God saw to it that this was his spot to be drafted in. Thought he might pull out the Tom Brady blueprint again. From zero to hero Nuss!

I will be amazed if he makes the final roster.

He slid because he was lazy in the off season. If he wants to stick, he will have to put in the work. He was happy to ride the bench in college and then didn't put in the work when he had the chance.

Extremely stupid post.

lsucoonass•2 months

He wasn’t at all, he had a pretty good day for his pro day prior to the combine

GeauxTigers1410•2 months

He slid because no one would be honest about his condition last season. Just in the last few weeks was it unveiled what the actual injury was. No NFL team was going to roll the dice on them suddenly staring to tell the whole story.

Great team for him. Get healthy, learn gain some muscle. Be ready for the top spot in 3 or 4 years or at least a solid #2.

Glad he got his Named called... Larry Leo as "Staff Reporter" confirmed.

Should’ve went to the Vikings, O’Connell can make any qb look good.

You missed all the Vikings games last year apparently.

I did, please enlighten!

Kelly jacked this kid profile up. I hope he Tom Brady the NFL.

I hate all stupid crying.

He’s in a great position to be a longtime backup. Learn the game, pace & cadence. He could end up being a 10 year vet as a backup. He also could parlay his time in the league with a QB coaching job,

Hope Reid coaches a bit longer to develop him. Patrick Mahommes was a lot like him when he was in college. Gun slinger

UncleLester•2 months

I can't wait until Preseason to see when he ignores Coach Reid giving him guidance on the sideline just like he did to CBK and FW.

Bob_Sugar•2 months

Bro made more in college than he will make in the pros.

Geaux get em Nuss. You got this. 257 football players in were drafted to the NFL in 2026. You were one of them. Be proud, chin up, onward and upward.

El Jefe de Tu Mama•2 months

This is the best place he could be. Zero pressure. He will be learning from the best coach in the NFL amd hopefully make that roster as be Mahommes backup.

Wanted to post the same thing...agreed!

I'm very happy for him. Stars may align for him. Got do your thing Tiger.

BK was apparently fooling us all at the tune of $95M. his 2 best players barley made it into the NFL

Redhead57•2 months

I’m happy for Nussmeier. Hopefully he will be healthy. Kelly screwed him.

Are you suggesting that Jayden Daniels barely made it into the NFL?
