Jake Locker remains undecided on NFL future

Washington quarterback Jake Locker closed his junior season in spectacular fashion on Saturday.

Locker lead the Huskies to an improbable 42-10 blowout of No. 19 California. On the day he completed 19 of 23 passes for 248 yards and three touchdown passes. Add on 77 yards rushing and two more scores and Locker showed why he was considered a top-five pick at one point this season.

But Locker isn’t thinking about his NFL future just yet. After yesterday’s game, Locker said he would sit down with his family and coaches and decide his future.

“I haven’t made a plan,” Locker told reporters. “I don’t have a plan of attack. I don’t have an outline. I don’t have anything.

”Obviously it crosses your mind once in a while, but my focus was this football team and winning football games. If you don’t go out and perform well, it’s not even a discussion. So I just wanted to go out and give our team the best chance to win every Saturday that we could.

“I’ve always believed if you take care of that first, everything else will take care of itself.”

On the year, Locker finished with 2,800 yards passing for 21 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He completed 58.2 percent of his passes. He also ran for 388 yards and seven touchdowns.
