Making a Quarterback: K.J. Costello

For the better part of two seasons, the Stanford Cardinal entered every contest led by the weakest link on their offensive arsenal: Quarterback.

The glimmer of hope that broke through at the end of last season being redshirt junior quarterback K.J. Costello and his four-game stretch to finish the regular season. During this final stanza, he passed for 764 yards, seven scores and completed 58.8 percent of his passes.

Obviously, the Stanford staples of a world-class running attack and beefy offensive line have consistently eased the job of many former Cardinal signal callers. This four-game run was no exception.
