Offseason depth charts are projections for who will crack the two-deep in 2024. These will never be perfect without a regulated system in college football, 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. Information on these posts come from beat writers, sports information directors and various industry sources with a lot of reading.

The in-season editions reflect what teams release if they decide to post one at all. Coaches mislead on injuries and depth charts every week, but I’ve gotten pretty good at identifying the biggest violators of quarterback misinformation.

Notes on in-season injury designations:

• Questionable — Player suffered an injury in the previous game and did not return 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.

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.

• **Indicates player is serving an LDS mission OR attending service academy prep school.

• Italics are committed recruits

LATEST UPDATE (May 22, 2024) — Ward committed to San Jose State. He did not see the field at Sam Houston State last season. HC Ken Niumatalolo said it’s neck-to-neck between Eget and Brown to be the starter on the team website in late April. Eget was outside the top three on the depth chart last season, and Brown was not in the two-deep at Washington State in 2023.
