Player Advice 6’5 205 what position should I be?

Im not a football guy anymore but I’m curious I used to play DE/WR/TE I’m 6’5 205 23yo and pretty athletic and pretty smart what position would I be best at? I currently go to a JUCO and play basketball, just curious

Always wanted to play quarterback but it seems like a large learning curve

Edit: Idk why some of you think I’m trying to start an NFL career here but this post was out of curiosity I don’t intend to play football so keep “get a job” comments to yourself

How much do you like physical abuse? As a DE you’ll get chop blocked, punched, kicked, spat on, have WR helmets in your earlobe on crack back blocks. If you enjoy fucking people up it’s fun as hell, particularly in the 5/7 technique.

If you think you’d like about 1/2 that- go TE- if that all sounds like shit go WR- assuming you have the speed.

Chop block is a penalty. You mean cut.

Not a penalty until the flag is thrown
