Duke Football: Navy Shuler, son of Heath, visiting Blue Devils this weekend

A dual-threat quarterback in the 2020 class with a famous father will be in Durham this weekend visiting with the Duke football program.

If you ask fans of the Tennessee Volunteers, they would say it’s a good idea to recruit the son of Heath Shuler (he accumulated more than 4,000 yards in two seasons as the Vols’ starting quarterback in the early ’90s under the tutelage of then-UT quarterbacks coach David Cutcliffe).

If you ask fans of the Washington Redskins, though, chances are they would highly discourage it (after being drafted third overall in the 1994 NFL Draft, Shuler played only four seasons while throwing 33 picks and just 15 touchdowns while completing less than 50 percent of his passes).
