CFB’s next elite QB 👀

September 5, 2026
Davis Wade Stadium — Starkville, Mississippi

Kamario Taylor had a coming-out party in his second start at Davis Wade Stadium.

And he did it in front of the same Mississippi State fans he grew up watching from the stands.

The sophomore quarterback was ELECTRIC.

22/34 passing.
354 passing yards.
4 passing touchdowns.
59 rushing yards.
1 rushing touchdown.
413 total yards.
5 total touchdowns.

Mississippi State didn’t just win.

The Bulldogs DESTROYED ULM 62–13, setting a program record with 762 total yards.

Taylor accounted for touchdowns through the air to four different receivers, then broke loose for a 26-yard rushing touchdown and hit the Heisman pose in the end zone.

And just when it looked like the first half couldn’t get any better…

Taylor opened the third quarter by dropping a 70-yard touchdown dime to Marquis Johnson.

The arm talent.

The athleticism.

The confidence.

The hometown kid finally got his moment in Starkville.

And he made sure nobody forgot it.

Kamario Taylor has arrived. 🐶🔥

After calling fake fouls in the first half, the refs have now decided prison rules.

[Rookie Watch @RookieWatxh]

Emmanuel Forbes bounced back HUGE against the New England Patriots.

After two weeks of playing just 5 total snaps, the Commanders rookie CB produced his best game yet.

• 37 coverage snaps
• 7 targets
• 2 receptions allowed (12 yards)
• 3 pass breakups
• 3 total tackles
• 39.6 passer rating allowed

Mac Jones would’ve had the same passer rating throwing the ball into the ground as he did throwing at Forbes.

This is EXACTLY what you want to see out of a rookie 🔥

[Reed Ponder @rponder_06]

Ball out 2 I see ya! 🤯🥱 @Wrogers__2

Emmanuel Forbes LOCKING up Odell Beckham 😳

Forbes was reported “all over” the field in the Commanders first joint practice with the Ravens.

Forbes reportedly had many “impressive” battles with the Ravens starting WR core.

Forbes also ended up getting in a minor fight with Tylan Wallace (Ravens WR) towards the end of practice.

The Commanders rookie CB showing MAJOR potential.
