When the Wisconsin Badgers landed Nick Evers from the Oklahoma Sooners this offseason, many had high expectations for the former four-star quarterback, whose arm talent and athleticism impressed evaluators in high school.
However, a few months into his Wisconsin experience, Evers has seen limited action in spring ball, competing for the third-string role at the moment, while fellow transfers Tanner Mordecai and Braedyn Locke have held a firm grasp of the QB1 and QB2 roles.
Earlier this week, when offensive coordinator Phil Longo spoke with the media, he alluded to the current quarterback depth chart being Mordecai and Locke at the top, with walk-on Marshall Howe currently at third, due to his understanding of the offense.
