Report: Cardinals sign undrafted QB Trevor Knight from Texas A&M

Apr 29, 2017, 4:29 PM | Updated: Apr 30, 2017, 12:38 pm

The Arizona Cardinals didn’t draft a quarterback in the 2017 NFL Draft, but they are reportedly signing one as an undrafted free agent.

Knight spent three years at Oklahoma before finishing out his collegiate career with Texas A&M, transferring as a graduate student. Over the course of those four seasons, Knight threw for 5,856 yards, finishing with 44 touchdowns and 26 interceptions with a 55.5 completion percentage. In his senior season, Knight had 29 total touchdowns, rushing for 10 of his 29 to go along with 614 yards on the ground.

He started five games as a true freshman at Oklahoma and threw for 2,300 yards in his sophomore season.

NFL.com projected Knight as an undrafted free agent.

Knight is a tough guy and a very capable runner, but he’s never thrown with any functional accuracy and he doesn’t have the anticipation and delivery quickness necessary. Knight is a longshot to make an NFL roster.
