Chad Kelly’s senior season at Ole Miss now is over, wrecked prematurely by a knee injury. Now, it’s time for Jason Pellerin to take the snaps.
With Kelly sidelined for the season after he tore the the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee during last Saturday’s 37-27 victory over Georgia Southern, it’s second-stringer Pellerin who will be in charge of the Rebels’ concluding three-game drive for bowl eligibility.
So, who is Jason Pellerin?
* He’s a redshirt freshman: A dual-threat quarterback, he’s listed at 6 feet 4 and 230 pounds from New Iberia, La.
