Louisville Football: Who Plays Behind Puma Pass?

There is no real question who will start for Louisville football in 2018.

Although the Cards lost their most productive quarterback in school history in 2016 Heisman Trophy recipient Lamar Jackson, their guy has always been waiting in the wings.

Jawon “Puma” Pass was a highly sought after quarterback coming out of high school, and he has all of the tools to lead Louisville in a similarly dominating fashion to Jackson. Although he lacks the freakish athleticism of Jackson, he is a polished pro-style passer who can also tote the rock when needed.

Pass saw little game action in 2017 and when he did get in, he was what most expected.
