Washington football will have a new starting quarterback and running back for the first time since 2015, and the defense is replacing nine starters. The biggest battle by far will be at quarterback with returning redshirt sophomore Jake Haener and junior transfer Jacob Eason. Eason is heavily favored to be the opening starter; however, Haener might see some action early on the season as well.
Like Jake Browning, the Huskies have to replace Myles Gaskin who started all four years at running back. Junior Salvon Ahmed is the projected starter.
