Chad Kelly and Shea Patterson both saw meaningful time as the quarterback of the Ole Miss football team this season.
Kelly, who started the season as a Heisman darkhorse, went down with a knee injury against Georgia Southern, an injury that would end his career at Ole Miss.
Before that, Kelly had been struggling with his accuracy and was not timing his passes with his receivers very well.
He all but assured himself that he would not be getting drafted next year when the NFL draft takes place after a poor performance in his senior season.
Patterson took over for Kelly after the injury and faced the Texas A&M Aggies in his first career game.
Shea was magnificent in the second half of the game, but outside of that, he was nothing too special. The kid is a freshman though, so he does get some leeway.
But overall, the position played poorly this season. Things did not go Ole Miss’ way and the quarterbacks did not help that cause.
With quarterback coach Dan Werner gone, the Ole Miss quarterbacks will have a new QB coach to work with next season after the new offensive coordinator takes over.
