Prospect Interview: Cole Payton REVEALS His NFL-Ready Mentality and Dual-Threat Skills

North Dakota State Bison’s Cole Payton sets his sights on the NFL, blending quarterback poise with a running back’s fearless mentality. Can Payton’s unique mix of physicality, leadership, and experience in a pro-style offense make him a must-watch prospect for all 32 teams? Damian Parson sits down with the former Bison quarterback to unpack Payton’s growth behind NFL draft pick Cam Miller, his approach to high-pressure moments, and the mechanics he’s refining for the next level. The conversation covers favorite third-and-long passing concepts like four verticals, Payton’s film-room mastery in identifying blitzes, and the relentless mindset that powers his rushing game. Listeners gain exclusive insight into what sets Payton apart as both a dynamic playmaker and a high-character locker room presence.   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
