There are several talented quarterbacks in the 2021 NFL draft, and BYU quarterback Zach Wilson is certainly one of them. Friday, it was reported that the Patriots were among the teams at his pro day.
Wilson threw for 3,692 yards, 33 touchdowns and three interceptions on the year.
His best game of the season came on December 22 in the Boca Raton Bowl. In that game, he went 26-of-34 on the day, throwing for 425 yards and three touchdowns. He also had a 76.5 completion percentage. He showed that he could rush the football as well, carrying the ball five times for 12 yards and two touchdowns, as BYU was able to defeat UCF.

With Wilson one of the top quarterbacks in the draft, the Patriots would have to do some maneuvering in order to land him. Nevertheless, they are certainly doing their homework.
