He has great size (6'3") and athleticism. Both inside and outside the pocket, he makes plays. Inside the pocket, he shows a strong arm and delivers an accurate ball. He has good mechanics and footwork. Then, when the play breaks down, he turns into a playmaker, scrambling around to make plays with his feet. Brinkley had a strong Junior season, but I expect him to play even better this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Junior year highlights-<a href="https://t.co/nzzQmeBoCs">https://t.co/nzzQmeBoCs</a><br><br>Passing: 141-254/ 1805yds/ 17tds/ 6ints<br><br>Rushing: 87 attempts/ 358yds/ 4tds<br><br>Great season and can't wait for next year.

As a quarterback, he is excellent inside and outside the pocket. Inside the pocket, he shows a good ability to throw the ball. He has a good arm and throws an accurate ball. His mechanics and footwork are good. Then, as a runner, he shows a good ability to run the ball. He is good at designed QB run plays and at adjusting when plays break down. Then, on defense, he is also a difference-maker. Playing as an outside linebacker/strong safety, he made a ton of plays. He had 3 interceptions that he returned for touchdowns. All 3 were great plays by him. Yannone is a great athlete who plays quarterback and defense at a high level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Dunmore PA <a href="https://x.com/hashtag/2027recruit?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#2027recruit</a><br>Multi-Position ATHLETE, DB/Safety, Dt-QB, RB, WR<br>Verified Stats &amp; PR&#039;s: 6&#039;0, 195lb, 94/100 GPA (Honor classes, Honor Student)<br>40yd: 4.47 Top Speed: 23.5mph 100m-10.89<br>Vertical: 38&quot; Box Jump: 68&quot; Broad Jump-10&#039;0<br>L-Drill-6.9 Pro shuttle-4.1… <a href="https://t.co/W5vWcr6Ebs">pic.twitter.com/W5vWcr6Ebs</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1575870' first='Weston' last='Yannone'] &#039;27 (@WYannone13) <a href="https://x.com/WYannone13/status/2062576263424782680?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 4, 2026</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1398274"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a34551ee5f01"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In limited action, [player_tooltip player_id='1398274' first='Carson' last='Martin'] showed a good ability to play quarterback last season. He has good size (6'2") and athleticism you want from a quarterback. He shows a good ability to throw the ball. He is especially good on designed quarterback sprint-out plays. He throws well on the run. Then, in the pocket, he is a consistently accurate thrower of the football. I expect a huge season for Martin. He is that talented a player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Junior Season Highlights (2.5 games played) 32/54 502 passing yards, 8 passing touchdowns. 111 Rushing yards, 1 rushing touchdown. <a href="https://t.co/LyAlHOXrCn">pic.twitter.com/LyAlHOXrCn</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1398274' first='Carson' last='Martin'] (@CarsonM_10) <a href="https://x.com/CarsonM_10/status/2021617363548782870?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 11, 2026</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["916097"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a34551ee5f82"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='916097' first='Aiden' last='Patton'] is a good quarterback who is good at both inside and outside the pocket.
