Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss, who may prove to be among the most polarizing prospects in the 2027 NFL draft, is off to a good start to his final season of college football.
Chambliss completed 21 of 36 passes for 336 yards, with three touchdowns and one interception, and also added nine carries for 60 yards and a rushing touchdown, as No. 9 Ole Miss beat No. 24 Louisville 41-38.
A year ago, Chambliss was a little-known transfer from Division II Ferris State who wasn’t even expected to start at Ole Miss, but he became more than just a starter. He became one of the best players in the country, leading Ole Miss to the College Football Playoff.
So why is Chambliss polarizing as a prospect? He’s on the smaller side (listed at 6-foot-1, possibly shorter) and is already 24 years old and in his sixth year of college football, so he may have less less upside and room for growth than some of the younger, less experienced quarterback projects.
Will Chambliss be a first-round pick? A Day Three pick? There’s a wide range of potential outcomes, but he can help his case by continuing to play like he did against Louisville.
