Huntley, standing 6’1″ and weighing 205 pounds, was born on February 3, 1998, in Dania, Florida. Known by the nickname “Snoop,” the Utah product has carved out a steady NFL presence since entering the league. His journey saw him spend four seasons with the Browns from 2020 to 2023, before a brief offseason stint and subsequent release in August 2024. Huntley returned to the Baltimore Ravens’ practice squad, only to be signed by the Miami Dolphins following a concussion to Tua Tagovailoa. He went on to start five games for Miami during the 2024 regular season, stepping in during high-pressure situations and showcasing his ability to deliver under duress.
Statistically, Huntley has accumulated 2,786 passing yards and 11 touchdowns over his career, with 829 yards and three touchdowns coming in the 2024 season alone (Pro Football Reference). Although he has yet to secure a Super Bowl title, his performances—such as his two-touchdown outing against the Cleveland Browns in Week 17—have proven his value as a reliable backup capable of both passing and rushing threats. Huntley’s highlights include an 18-yard scramble capped with a spin move and a 37-yard touchdown pass to Jaelon Darden, demonstrating his dual-threat capability and poise in the pocket.
NFL analysts, including Nick Shook of NFL.com, have ranked Huntley among the top backup quarterbacks approaching free agency, noting his potential to step up in critical moments. With the Browns’ quarterback situation in flux, Huntley’s addition is a strategic move to ensure the team has experienced hands ready to lead the offense, especially with the postseason in sight. As Cleveland fans brace for another unpredictable season, the acquisition of Huntley represents both a safety net and a nod to the importance of quarterback depth in today’s NFL landscape.
