DJ Hitaffer DJ Hitaffer 5'10" | 165 lbs | QB/ATH St. Mary's | 2027 State MD put together a season that firmly established him as one of the top quarterbacks in the MIAA, earning First Team All-MIAA honors through efficiency, toughness, and poise. His game is built on quick decision-making and a compact, rapid release that consistently leaves defenders swiping at air and arriving a step too late.

On film, Hitaffer shows the ability to deliver accurate throws under pressure, standing tall in the pocket while keeping his eyes downfield. When lanes open, he’s equally dangerous with his legs.

He capped the season with 1,270 total yards and 12 total touchdowns, numbers that reflect both his efficiency and his impact in critical moments. Hitaffer’s blend of quick processing, accuracy, and physical competitiveness makes him a difficult matchup and a quarterback who consistently elevates the offense around him.

Hitaffer completed 82-of-155 passes (59%) for 1,270 yards, seven touchdowns, and seven interceptions this past season. His highlights show that he can make high-difficulty thoughts, showing great touch and timing on several fade balls. Hitaffer also has good mobility and elusiveness that allows him to extend plays. There’s a few times where he is poised under pressure, delivering pass completions downfield with defenders closing in. Hitaffer is also an effective ball faker, which helps create bigger windows. Looks solid in the redzone. Would like to see him improve that touchdown-to-interception ratio.
