NOTE: The 2024 QB depth chart & injury notebook includes the latest info for teams not participating in the postseason. This post is updated daily on the site through this link. Teams will be added as their 2023 season ends, so Army and Navy were added to this week’s edition. For the depth chart & injury notebook for every quarterback room still competing in a College Football Playoff or bowl game, click here.

The QB depth chart & injury notebook includes every team as an abbreviated version of what you get in the College Football QB Newsletter. Every summary you get in the daily newsletter is copied onto this page and trimmed down to one sentence.

Most teams release a two-deep depth chart every week during the season, and this page reflects whatever the team puts out if they decide to post one at all. Unlike the NFL, there is no consequence for teams to mislead on depth charts and injuries to potentially gain an advantage.

I watch a lot of press conferences and have gotten pretty good at identifying the coaches who can be trusted and those who cannot. After tracking this stuff for the last few years, I can tell you the name of the biggest violator of quarterback misinformation rhymes with Shmimbo Shmisher.

This will never be perfect without a regulated system, but I put in the time and research to make sure this is the most accurate resource for QB injury and depth chart news on the internet.

A few notes on my injury designations:

• Questionable — Player suffered an injury in the previous game or has yet to return from injury.

• Probable — Player suffered an injury but played and looked reasonably healthy in the previous game.

• Out — Player is out indefinitely or will miss the rest of the season.

A few notes on eligibility:

• Players may play up to 4 games in a season without it counting toward a year of eligibility if they have a redshirt available.

• 2020 COVID season didn’t count toward a year of eligibility.

• Years of eligibility shows years left heading into the 2024 season.

• *Indicates redshirt is still available to use.

The top two quarterback options (or more if they’re known) are in bold. The rest are sorted by years of eligibility remaining, followed by highest high school star rating from 247, On3 and Rivals.

I’ll add 2024 quarterback recruits when they sign, which can be done during the Early Signing Period Dec. 20-22, 2023.

NOTES: Dec. 14 — Herrera announced he entered the transfer portal.

Rashada is leaning toward returning in 2024, according to 247Sports’ Chris Hummer and Matt Zenitz, though that was reported before the Sun Devils added Leavitt, who appeared in four games for Michigan State as a true freshman in 2023. Rashada opened as the starter for the first two games of 2023 before an injury forced him to miss every matchup till the regular season finale. Bourguet received the majority of starts and announced he is coming back in 2024.
