2026 College Football Rankings: Oregon, Notre Dame Highlight Post-Spring Top 25
Diving Into Arizona's 3 Current 2027 Football Commits See who the Wildcats have landed for next year's recruiting class.
MAY 4 • SI.COM
Wesley Yarbrough - Fighting for carries Yarbrough looks like the leading candidate to earn carries behind Kedrick Reescano and Quincy Craig, per the Arizona Daily Star.
Impact Yarbrough firmly looks to be the RB3 for Arizona -- he isn't in line for an enormous amount of carries. Still, he's in better position than Antwan Roberts, who he appears to have surpassed on the halfback pecking order. Yarbrough had just 78 total yards last fall, but looks primed to build on that number.
APRIL 28 • ROTOWIRE
Cole Rusk - Slated to claim starting role Rusk appears slated to start at tight end for Arizona in 2026, per the Arizona Daily Star.
Impact Rusk spent the 2025 season with Illinois, reeling in 19 catches for 217 yards and one touchdown. Now, the tight end appears primed to hold down the top of the position for Arizona in his sixth-year senior season, with Tyler Powell (foot) also a factor behind him once he heals up.
APRIL 28 • ROTOWIRE
Tre Spivey - Shines in spring ball Spivey looks good in spring ball, the Arizona Daily Star reports.
Impact Spivey caught 23 passes for 381 yards and seven touchdowns last season with the Arizona after transferring from Kansas State. With another year in the Wildcats' offensive system, he appears primed to take a big leap as a redshirt senior. Expect big things from Spivey this season.
APRIL 28 • ROTOWIRE
Tyler Powell - Expected to be cleared for summer Powell (foot) is expected to be fully cleared for Arizona's summer workouts, per Arizona Desert Swarm.
Impact Powell is expected to return to full capacity by summer workouts, which of course would put him at full strength by fall camp. The tight end, who caught five passes for 40 yards last fall, appears primed to take a big jump in his sixth-year senior season.

Tyler Powell - Ahead of schedule in recovery Powell (foot) is ahead of schedule in his recovery, Caleb Meadows of SI.com reports.
Impact After an injured foot rendered Powell out for all of 2025, he is expected to be involved in Arizona's summer and fall camps. The tight end still has sufficient time to make some noise for U of A, especially behind likely starting option Cole Rusk and for a team lacking proven depth in said position.

Kedrick Reescano - Not at full go in spring Reescano (undisclosed) is limited in Arizona's spring practice period, per Justin Spears of the Arizona Daily Star.
Impact Reescano is expected to be the top tailback for Arizona in 2026 after he ran for 396 yards and nine touchdowns on 4.7 yards per carry in 2025 as a sophomore with the Wildcats. However, he's limited in spring ball, which could allow other tailbacks including Ismail Mahdi and Antwan Roberts to show some flashes. At this point, Reescano should be good to go by fall camp, but he's worth keeping tabs on this offseason.
MARCH 24 • ROTOWIRE
Quincy Craig - Limited in spring ball Craig (undisclosed) will be limited in Arizona's spring practice period, per Justin Spears of the Arizona Daily Star.
Impact Craig is coming off a very solid season as a rotational back for Arizona in 2025. He ran for 364 yards and two scores on 5.6 yards per carry, also catching 14 passes for 114 yards and a score. The tailback, who should have just one season of eligibility remaining, appears to be dealing with an injury in spring camp and will be a limited participant.
