I actually read that his age (24) was a "knock against him". I just think it makes him more likely to flourish as a rookie.
Agree, if anything he has more experience and intelligence.
He is less raw than the other rookie QB's IMO.

And the rules protect them from getting physically abused like they used to.
Yep, the game has changed to where a QB can play a lot longer than they used to be able to play.
That is as long as you don't just run all the time like Lamar Jackson.
