Few rookie quarterbacks have faced the obstacles quarterback Aidan O'Connell did last season. He now faces another one, as he enters his second season in the league with his third offensive coordinator.
Few rookie quarterbacks drafted in the fourth round of the NFL Draft have had as wild of a ride en route to the starting position as second-year quarterback Aidan O’Connell. Last season, O’Connell started the season as the team’s third-string quarterback but was named the starting quarterback about halfway through last season. O’Connell would lead the team to a 5-4 record during the second half of last season.
“I think it's definitely a change, but again, it's not unique to me,” O’Connell said. “Some guys do that in one year and even less than that. And so, it's just trying as fast as I can to really steal time back and try to continue to go over things over and over. The more you go over them, the more you'll feel comfortable with them, and they won't feel as foreign. And so, just trying to study as much as possible to try to get ahead.
