Webb working with former pro QB to transition from spread

The Jets recently met with California quarterback Davis Webb, who actually played at Texas Tech with Patrick Mahomes. Here is a Q-and-A with Webb . . .

*Q)What was it like training with former NFL QB and coach Jim Zorn?

Davis Webb – QB – Cal: I’m a coach’s kid. I want to be a coach one day after I’m done playing, so I’ve always been a fan of coaches throughout high school, college and the NFL, so I knew who Jim Zorn was. I watched Steve Largent’s “A Football Life.” He’s on that. So I’m a football fanatic. It’s such an honor to be with him every day. It’s been a blessing.

Q)What is your relationship like with former Texas Tech teammate Patrick Mahomes?

Webb: We were at Texas Tech. He got there a little late – I think July. It was my job to take him under my wing and get him ready for the offense.
We had like six quarterbacks transfer from Texas Tech. Patrick and I are very close today. We text throughout the year. He was watching my games late at night at Cal. And I was watching his games in the morning. I look forward to seeing where he goes. It’ll be a lot of fun.

Q)Where do you think you might go in the draft?

Webb: I’m going to be the best quarterback I can be. I can’t control that kind of stuff. My preparation is the only thing on my mind and I try to be the best version of myself I can be and once my opportunity comes, make the most of it.

Q)Transitioning to pro-style offense from college spread . . .

Webb: Coach Zorn and I have been doing everything from talking about huddles to talking about plays, talking about the verbiage of plays and the defenses. I have a great foundation.
