The Jets Invest a Round 4 Pick into QB Cade Klubnik
The New York Jets selected Clemson QB Cade Klubnik in Round 4 of the 2026 NFL Draft. A five-star recruit, Klubnik started for three years at Clemson. He ended his career third in career passing yards at Clemson, but Klubnik struggled to make a major impact over his final two seasons. In 2025, Klubnik finished with 2,943 yards with 16 TDs and 6 INTs. His lack of arm strength in an RPO-style offense limited Klubnik’s production and consistency. Among the 15 QBs invited to the NFL Combine, Klubnik ranked seventh in 2025 adjusted completion percentage (77.6%), and ninth in aDOT (8.4). He ranked 10th in 2025 Big Time Throw rate (3.8%) and 11th in rushing yards per game when removing sacks (28.1). He is currently 22 years old.
