We’re still in the early part of the college football offseason, but that doesn’t mean predicting future success is off the table, especially concerning Texas A&M’s 2025 offense under incoming redshirt sophomore QB Marcel Reed.
After Conner Weigman transferred to Houston this offseason, Marcel Reed is the full-time starter. With nine starts under his belt during the 2024 season, the former four-start dual-threat signal caller still needs to improve as a pocket passer, especially from an accuracy standpoint.
Still, Reed had one of the better years despite not starting every game, finishing with 1,864 passing yards, 15 passing touchdowns, seven rushing touchdowns, and 547 rushing yards, placing 22nd overall (75.6) and fifth among SEC quarterbacks in total QBR.
Coach Mike Elko and Offensive Coordinator Collin Klein have concentrated on assisting Reed via the transfer portal this offseason, bringing in wide receivers KC Concepcion, Micah Hudson, Mario Craver, and Jonah Wilson. However, Hudson is presently taking a leave of absence from the program.
Furthermore, Texas A&M’s offense line will return nearly every starter, including six incoming freshmen from the 2025 class, while Le’Veon Moss will return for a final season alongside Reuben Owens and Amari Daniels in a loaded backfield.
PFF College’s Max Chadwick is one of the rare analysts this offseason who is bullish on Texas A&M’s revamped offense but knows that if the Aggies are going to reach their potential, only if Marcel Reed becomes a trusted pocket passer.
“If Marcel Reed develops more as a passer, Texas A&M’s offense is going to be lethal.”
For those unaware, Reed has been working hard over the last month with the quarterback Country Nashville. His mindset, maturity, and confidence in his ability could help him lead the Aggies in 2025.
