Quarterbacks Turning Heads in 2019 College Football Spring Games

Tate Martell was the third quarterback to see action in Miami's spring game, but it was a better-late-than-never situation for one of the more impressive intrasquad performances of the month.

Spring game stats are generally meaningless. We recognize that. Last spring, Oklahoma's Austin Kendall outplayed Kyler Murray, Ohio State's Joe Burrow was clearly more impressive than Dwayne Haskins, and Alabama's Tua Tagovailoa didn't play because of injury, but that didn't stop them from finishing top three in the Heisman vote.

Conversely, guys like Jack Richardson (Stanford), Nick Starkel (Texas A&M) and Brett Kean (South Florida) each threw for more yards in the 2018 spring game than they would in the entire regular season.
