Texas Tech Adds QB Amid Big 12 Rule Change | Texas Tech Red Raiders Football News

Texas Tech just added quarterback Tommy Castellanos to their roster right before kickoff, filling a spot made open by Will Hammond’s return from injury. Castellanos, who bounced around from UCF to Boston College to Florida State, brings over 6,500 passing yards and 48 touchdowns — and a wild backstory: he declared for the NFL draft, had a tryout with Miami, was ruled ineligible due to gambling issues (though later granted a fifth year of eligibility), and now joins a team that’s already sold out for their season opener. Just hours after his commitment, the Big 12 dropped a new rule banning players who were on NFL rosters — but since Castellanos never made the Dolphins’ final roster, he slipped through the cracks. With six QBs now on board, the Red Raiders are looking like championship favorites. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
