Top Quarterbacks to Watch in the SWAC for the 2024 Season

The Southwestern Athletic Conference’s annual Football Media Day is in full swing, and all eyes are on the top quarterbacks who will lead their teams to success this upcoming season. With the goal of securing a SWAC championship and a spot in the Celebration Bowl, these quarterbacks are ready to showcase their skills on the field.

One standout quarterback to watch is Jacobian Morgan from Jackson State. The Syracuse transfer had an impressive half-season with the Tigers in 2023, throwing for 842 yards and 10 touchdowns while also rushing for six touchdowns. With a full season in T.C. Taylor’s offense, Morgan is a strong candidate for SWAC offensive player of the year.

Another quarterback to keep an eye on is Andrew Body from Alabama State. The Texas Southern transfer brings experience and talent to the Hornets, with over 3000 yards of total offense and 21 touchdowns in his previous seasons. Body’s dual-threat ability gives ASU a powerful weapon on offense, making them contenders in the SWAC East.

Myles Crawley from Grambling State is also a quarterback to watch this season. The Alabama State transfer had a solid performance last year, throwing for over 2,300 yards and 16 touchdowns. With the support of his team, Crawley is poised to lead the Tigers to success in the SWAC West.

With a lineup of talented quarterbacks like Noah Bodden from Southern, Xavier Lankford from Alabama A&M, and Walter Simmons III from Bethune-Cookman, the competition in the SWAC is fierce. These quarterbacks will play a crucial role in their team’s success this season, and fans can expect an exciting race to the SWAC championship.
