2026 Arkansas Razorbacks Depth Chart

Arkansas faces a genuinely open quarterback competition, which for fantasy GMs means focusing on upside and rushing value. Redshirt sophomore KJ Jackson has an early edge in experience and physical maturity, plus a proven nose for the goal line (he ran for 665 yards and 14 TD as a high school senior). However, redshirt freshman A.J. Hill arrives with blue-chip credentials (a former four-star with SEC offers who followed coach Ryan Silverfield from Memphis). Jackson’s familiarity with the roster and power-running ability give him a safer floor, but Hill’s superior arm talent and pedigree hint at a higher ceiling. This battle may linger into fall camp. The deciding factor will be who can run the new offense efficiently without turnovers – both have enough dual-threat ability to matter in fantasy if they win the job. Veteran D-II transfer Braeden Fuller provides insurance as a steady hand (he was a Harlon Hill Trophy finalist in 2024), but ideally Arkansas wants one of the young guns to seize the job long-term. In short, Jackson vs. Hill comes down to steady rushing floor versus tantalizing passing upside, and whichever QB emerges will carry significant fantasy value in this system.
