Stetson Bennett has been viewed as a possible late-round option for teams in the NFL Draft, but there appear to be some major doubts about his suitability for even a backup role, Grey Papke of Larry Brown Sports reports.
Some teams have significant off-field concerns about the former Georgia quarterback, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. While teams like Bennett’s on-field profile, his January arrest and his pre-draft interviews have left some teams unimpressed.
“He does some good stuff. But he might go undrafted,” one NFC executive told Fowler. “His pre-draft has not been good and there are questions about whether he’ll be the pro that you need out of a backup QB.”
Bennett does not profile as a starter, so teams will be less willing to put up with off-field distractions when he occupies a position that should not be causing issues. His January arrest and subsequent revelations are not helping in that regard.
