How D’Eriq King stacks up to other top quarterbacks

While some college football players come into and steal the spotlight, other players fall under the radar while performing at high levels.

Senior quarterback D’Eriq King, an example of the phenomenon, is coming into his final season with Houston and is poised to put on another successful season, picking up where he left off in 2018 after being sidelined with a knee injury.

Every now and then, a player will emerge from a lesser-known program or smaller conference and shock audiences watching with their game.

Over the years, many of these players have gone on to put their names in the news as top college prospects and even go on to become immediate starters upon arriving in the NFL.
