International Quarterback Prospect to Visit Boston College

The Eagles are set to welcome Denmark native Emil Lokkegaard on an unofficial visit during a football camp this summer.

In the 2025 recruiting class, Bill O'Brien and the Eagles staff earned a commitment from Andy Quinn, an international kicker prospect originally from Dublin, Ireland who had spent time with the NFL Academy in England before making his college decision.

This offseason, Boston College is seemingly once again returning to the international pool of players, but this time for a much more important position, quarterback.

2028 signal caller Emil Lokkegaard from Denmark took to social media this week to announce that he will be in Chestnut Hill this summer for a football camp. The 6-foot-5, 205 lb. quarterback previously suited up for the Copenhagen Towers of the Danish American Football Federation in 2023 before joining the NFL Academy.

Excited to announce that I’ll be attending the following camps in the U.S. this June:
•Boston College
•Rutgers University
•Fordham University
•Andrew Van Curen

Ready to learn, compete, and grow — can’t wait to get to work!#QB #NFLAcademy #CollegeFootball #Recruiting…

Lokkegaard is also set to attend a Rutgers and Fordham football camp as well, on top of the Andrew Van Curen football camp, hosted by Fairleigh Dickinson University.

Though he is a more underrated quarterback prospect, Lokkegaard has many of the tangible traits of an excellent signal caller. His tall frame gives him the ability to easily read the field and diagnose defenses, and he is also a gifted runner for someone his size.

In a clip shared by NFL Academy, Lokkegaard's running ability is on full display as he gets around the edge on what looks to be an option play for a touchdown.
