UCLA Bruins QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson announces plans for 2022 season
The UCLA Bruins have been in a merry-go-round with quarterback position so far this offseason. On Monday, head coach Chip Kelly got a present surprise at the position, with his starter returning for the 2022 season.
Dorian Thompson-Robinson took to Twitter on Monday, announcing he would be returning to Los Angeles next season. Had he not decided to come back for a fifth season, the Bruins would have been in trouble with the quarterback.
Thompson-Robinson has started in 27 games over the last three seasons and only missed one game during the 2021 season. He led the highest-scoring offense in the Pac-12 alongside Kelly, throwing for 2,409 yards and 21 touchdowns while completing 62.2% of his passes. The ground game has been a huge asset for Thompson-Robinson as well, rushing for 609 yards and nine touchdowns.
Just a few days ago, Dillon Gabriel was thought to be the starter for next season. Then, Caleb Williams decided to enter the transfer portal and caused a huge domino within the entire sport. The Oklahoma Sooners and offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby came calling for Gabriel, convincing him to play next season in Norman.
Getting Thompson-Robinson to return will have expectations for UCLA much higher than before.
