Freshman QB Preston Otter Brings Size and Fresh Energy to South Dakota State's Offense
Preston Otter, a 6'3", 210-lb freshman quarterback from Hemlock, MI, is currently active for the South Dakota State Jackrabbits as the team's #9 QB[1]. As a first-year player, his primary differentiator is his prototypical size for the position, offering a physical presence that can withstand pressure while developing his reads in the FCS environment[1]. While specific 2025 game stats and advanced rankings aren't yet available in public databases, his status as an active freshman suggests he is either a backup developing behind a veteran or a redshirt preparing for a future role[1]. He is a high-upside fit for teams seeking a tall, durable QB with room to grow, though he lacks the proven game-intensity metrics of a seasoned starter; his intensity and personality are still being defined as he navigates his first collegiate season[1].
