The story

As of

Robertson's 2025 season was workmanlike in the best sense. He completed 304 of 503 attempts for 3,681 yards and 31 touchdowns against 12 interceptions — a 60.4 percent completion rate on a high-volume offense that asked him to push the ball. The play-by-play numbers tell a more textured story than the surface line: a 70th-percentile sack rate (he processed and got the ball out) and a 69th-percentile average depth of target (he was willing to throw past the sticks). The interception rate — 40th percentile — is the thing to watch; it tracks with a passer who occasionally forces windows, but it also reflects a scheme that asked him to take chances.

The Davey O'Brien QB Class nod in late October came when Robertson was leading the country in passing yards (2,513 at that point) and ranked second nationally in touchdown passes. That kind of production mid-season, in the Big 12, against a brutal schedule, is not nothing. It is also not what gets you drafted. The completion percentage — 33rd percentile in play-by-play context, with a PBP-adjusted rate of 54.3 percent — and a pedestrian touchdown rate (42nd percentile) told evaluators there were efficiency ceilings alongside the obvious volume floor.

The Raiders UDFA signing is the right landing spot for the story he's telling. Robertson is a pro-ready frame at 6-3, 200 pounds out of Lubbock, with the pocket awareness to survive NFL pressure and the arm strength to challenge all three levels. The 2026 camp competition will determine whether he sticks on a practice squad or transitions. Either way, he closed a college career — Mississippi State to Baylor, three seasons as the starter — with more production than most four-stars manage.
