Matt Fink Laying Claim to USC Football’s QB2 Role

A quarterback playing at an elite level is always one snap away from being sidelined with an injury. Just take a look at UCLA’s Josh Rosen last season, or Matt Barkley during his senior year with USC in 2012.

The question for the Trojans is, if Sam Darnold were to get hurt, who would take over the quarterback reins?

While there has been much talk about the talented four-star early enrollee Jack Sears, hailing from Darnold’s alma mater San Clemente High School, Trojan faithful shouldn’t be quick to forget redshirt freshman Matt Fink, an early enrollee from the recruiting class of 2016.
