Connell not only plays both ways, but he also plays all over the field. On offense, he lines up at tight end, in the slot, and behind center. He is a solid route runner whose cuts on his routes are as crisp as you will see. He also has the speed to get down the field to stretch defenses. As a quarterback, he is not just a read option quarterback who defenses can just give token respect to the pass. Although he is much more of a threat to run, he can get the ball downfield if needed. As a runner, he has a quick first step and has a good combination of size and speed. As a linebacker, Connell is best when attacking the line of scrimmage.
