2021 NFL Draft: Virginia TE Tony Poljan

Virginia Cavaliers football fans are used to star TEs who started at QB. It’s The Heath Miller Experience. Jake McGee, less of an NFL star but a very good college TE, also started his career at QB. Tony Poljan didn’t start at UVA, but at Central Michigan he went a lot further at QB than Miller or McGee did.

Poljan actually started six games at QB for the Chippewas. In total, he completed 89/168 (53%) for 703 yards (4.2 ypa) and 2 TDs versus 5 INTs. He rushed 91 times for 248 yards (2.7 ypc). Those are not particularly good numbers.
