2026 University of Houston Depth Chart

Conner Weigman enters his senior campaign as one of the Big 12’s most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks after a breakout 2025: 2,705 passing yards, 25 TDs, 9 INTs, and a career-high 700 rushing yards with 11 ground scores — the most by a Houston QB since Greg Ward Jr. in 2015. His 80.5 PFF rushing grade led all Big 12 QBs and ranked ninth nationally, making him a consistent fantasy floor-raiser. Five-star true freshman Keisean Henderson (No. 1 overall recruit in the 2026 class, highest-rated signee in program history) will create genuine spring buzz and could steal meaningful snaps, but supplanting a proven, healthy senior is a steep ask in Year 1. Syracuse transfer Luke Carney rounds out a suddenly thin room after Zeon Chriss-Gremillion and Austin Carlisle departed via portal.
