He was getting the ball out on time consistently and hitting receivers in stride. His delivery is smooth and he could spin it with anybody at the camp.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Had a great time at the <a href="https://twitter.com/PrepRedzone?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PrepRedzone</a> combine and won the MVP for the QB's.
