Zaid Lott’s Right Tackle Gives Insight into UNC’s 2026 Quarterback Commit

Posted Jul 1, 2024
Offensive lineman Leo Delaney’s job this season is to protect new UNC quarterback commit Zaid Lott. It will be a tad different than doing so for Jadyn Davis, the 5-star quarterback and teammate from last season who is now at Michigan. Lott backed up Davis, so his game remains a bit of a mystery. But not to Delaney. "He’s a phenomenal leader." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
