Zach Calzada

Calzada threw for 2,185 yards and 17 touchdowns last season, spending the majority of the campaign as the starter at Texas A&M. He had offseason surgery on his non-throwing shoulder, though is expected to be healed in time for fall camp. Calzada will contend with TJ Finley, who started the final three games last season for the Tigers, including the Birmingham Bowl. Finley completed just 54.7-percent of his passes in 2021, while Calzada was not much better, coming in at 56.1-percent while with the Aggies. Oregon transfer Robby Ashford will also end up in the mix, as well as Holden Geriner. Calzada has the experience and perhaps the competitive edge of the quartet, though he may not be the most physically talented quarterback in the group.
