New Arizona backup quarterback Braedyn Locke told reporters why he chose the Wildcats earlier this week in a joint appearance in front of the media with starting signal caller Noah Fifita. Locke transferred to Arizona during the 2025 offseason.
Locke began his career as a redshirt in 2022 at Mississippi State and played in 16 games with 12 starts in the past two seasons at Wisconsin. In 2023 Locke played in five games, with three starts after starting QB Tanner Mordechai was injured.
Locke played in 11 games with nine starts in 2024 after starting QB Tyler VanDyke was injured.
