Spencer Rattler Talks To Andy Staples About Favorite Moment With Gamecocks, Reese's Senior Bowl

Former South Carolina football star and quarterback, Spencer Rattler, shared some memories at South Carolina and more when chatting with On3's Andy Staples.

Last week, Andy Staples of On3 Sports was at the Reese's Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, and he had a chance to not only to watch the MVP of the game, Spencer Rattler, but was also allowed to speak with him. Staples stated, "It felt like he [Rattler] the highest ceiling who could go to the senior bowl and help themselves the most."

Andy also spoke highly of Rattler's arm talent, saying, "Spencer Rattler had a good week; in terms of arm talent, there aren't many guys in the draft other than Caleb Williams that have that level of arm talent. Jayden Daniels probably."

When Staples first sat down to talk with Rattler, he asked his thoughts on if someone told him he'd wind up in South Carolina and love it, what would he say? Rattler responded: "I would've said you're crazy. I never thought South Carolina was any idea coming out of high school. As you grow, as opportunities arise, as you go through adversity, that popped up and was a great move for me."

Another topic Rattler got to speak on was one of his favorite moments in South Carolina. Without hesitation, he said, "Definitely, in the 2022 season, [the] Tennessee win and then beat Clemson that next week." Spencer elaborated that in those games, he felt like everything was clicking because they were pushing the ball down the field and getting the ball in the hands of his playmakers.

One of the last things Rattler was asked is what he plans to show NFL GMs: "I can show them I'm one of the best quarterbacks in this draft, I can make every throw on the field, I'm a quick learner, processor, I can understand multiple offensive systems, and I can get it done."
