We can rule that out, barring one of the biggest surprises in UDFA history.
It’s an absolute long shot he even makes a fall camp, but if by some chance he does, he’s going to have to show he can play as an NFL wide receiver, and most likely in the slot. That’s the almost universal path college QBs with athleticism but not NFL QB talent take to an NFL roster.
Here is a decent read on some college QBs who’ve made the move with both productive receivers and those who struggled mentioned. Even here, many of these guys also played some receiver in college, which Tommy has never done other than lining up in a few gimmick formations with Chambers
Keep in mind that Tommy also won’t be drafted, which means he’d also need to excel in any post-draft spring camps to even make it to the full team training camp.
