Former, Current NFL Players Rip Brady Quinn Over CJ Stroud Claim

Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey and former NFL safety and ESPN analyst Ryan Clark ripped Fox Sports analyst Brady Quinn for a claim made about quarterback prospect C.J. Stroud.

Stroud, who had a decorated career with Ohio State as one of the top quarterbacks in the college game, is expected to be one of the first signal-callers off the board in the next week’s NFL draft. Despite throwing 85 touchdowns to just 12 interceptions in two seasons at Ohio State, Quinn claimed that there are still concerns among league scouts about the quarterback for a peculiar reason.

“There’s some other stuff about interviews,” Quinn told Will Brinson and Katie Mox when listing reasons why scouts were concerned about Stroud. “For example, the Manning Passing Academy … I’ve been told he committed to it the night before and then didn’t show up. That’s football royalty, and when you do that it’s going to set off some alarms for people like, ‘Hey man, that’s not how you conduct yourself, especially around the Manning family or just in general for you to be a franchise quarterback.’”
