Dylan Lonergan - Competing for starting QB gig Lonergan (thumb) is competing for Rutgers' starting quarterback gig, per 247Sports.com.

Impact Lonergan is in a quarterback battle with AJ Surace, the incumbent returnee for Rutgers. Lonergan, meanwhile, transferred from Boston College after a two-year stint with Alabama. He flashed some potential last season with the Eagles, tossing for 2,025 yards, 12 touchdowns and five interceptions while completing 67 percent of his passes. He battled a thumb injury towards the end of the season, but appears to be over that in the Scarlet Knights spring camp.

AJ Surace - Competing for starting job Surace is competing against Dylan Lonergan for Rutgers' starting quarterback position, Kristian Dyer of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Even though Surace stood out in the spring of 2025, he did not log much playing time for Rutgers that year. Fast-forward to 2026, and he stands at least a better chance, though Lonergan will provide stiff competition. In terms of Surace's 2025, his production was solid despite limitations, backed by four completed passes for 58 yards and two touchdowns without any turnovers.

Vernon Allen III - Healthy again Allen (undisclosed) is healthy again, Kristian Dyer of 247Sports.com reports.
