SALT LAKE CITY – ESPN’s Mike Greenberg said that former Utah Utes and current Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley might be “a star in the making.”
The host of ESPN’s “Get Up” praised Huntley following his performance during Week 15 of the NFL season.
Huntley started for the second time this season and nearly led the Ravens to a win over the Green Bay Packers.
The former Ute scored four touchdowns in a one-point loss to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers.
The next day, Greenberg praised Huntley as one of the better quarterbacks in the NFL.
“There aren’t 32 better QBs in the NFL than he looked yesterday,” the host said of the former Utah standout.
