Chase Jenkins gives Rice a dual-threat spark with record-setting efficiency
In the 2025 season, Chase Jenkins emerged as Rice’s QB1 and delivered a true dual-threat profile: 1,025 passing yards, 9 passing touchdowns, 531 rushing yards, and 5 rushing scores while completing 69.2% of his passes. He also set a school record for completion rate and became the first Rice quarterback to start all 12 regular-season games since 2016, which says a lot about his durability and trust level. The fit? He brings spread-option juice, composure, and run-game stress that can tilt a defense—exactly the kind of gamer coaches love.
