Tim Boyles stats from his first 3 years at UConn:
25 games, 1,237 passing yards, 48% completion percentage (wtf???), 1 whole touchdown (wtf??????), 13 interceptions
This is legitimately one of the worst 3 year stat lines I’ve ever seen. But let’s give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe there was a bad situation at UConn. Maybe it was a coaching problem or the team was just THAT horrible. Well here are his stats from his one season after he transferred to Eastern Kentucky (an FCS school FYI):
12 games, 2,134 yards, 11 touchdowns, 13 interceptions, 61.5 % completion percentage.
Better, but the competition dropped going from an FBS school to an FCS school. So the question is HOW THE HELL did this guy end up with a job in the NFL?? And not only that, but get multiple jobs on multiple different teams. Is there something going on here? Something I’m missing in this story? No wonder the Jets were so hesitant to put this guy in. Now watch him torch the Dolphins on Friday lol
My best guess would be that there must be some connection between eastern Kentucky staff and the Packers staff/area scouts who tipped them off about Boyle being a great QB room guy. The brought him in for a pre draft visit in 2018 and in the 2018 preseason he wasn't bad at all.
