Previewing the 2025 season for Texas A&M QB Miles O'Neill with his player profile
As we gear up for the 2025 football season, Aggies Wire is breaking down every player on the Texas A&M roster. Throughout the preseason, each profile will highlight the player's background, recruiting rankings out of high school, and their projected role under head coach Mike Elko this year.
All eyes are on Marcel Reed for the 2025 season, but the most intriguing battle might be for the backup quarterback role between newcomer in veteran Jacob Zeno and strong-armed redshirt freshman Miles O'Neill. O'Neill may have the edge, with more time in the program and a strong rapport with offensive coordinator Collin Klein.
In the only game he played in during the 2024 season, O'Neill was highly efficient, going 5-of-6 for 51 yards and a touchdown. He followed that up with a strong 2025 spring game, bolstering his case for the QB 2 spot next season.
