Tyson Bagent showcased his 88th-percentile Athleticism Score against Tennessee, completing 16 of 17 passes for 208 yards, two touchdowns, and a 94.1-percent completion rate. His preseason totals—29 completions on 39 attempts for 377 yards and three scores—reinforce the profile of a small-school producer with a 72.8-percent college completion percentage who commands high-efficiency execution.

While Case Keenum offers veteran stability, Bagent’s dynamic output secures his role as the direct backup to Caleb Williams. Bagent has an NFL-starter skillset and would be a frothy waiver wire add in superflex leagues if Williams misses any time in 2026. Bagent is also a very attractive long-term superflex dynasty asset, as he will be a free agent after the 2027 season.
