Illinois Football 2022 Preseason Depth Chart: Quarterback

Spring practice gave Illinois fans reason for excitement. The quarterback battle was one that drew ample interest and Tommy DeVito came out of the spring as the entrenched starter. Art Sitkowski will likely be the top backup, but he may be pushed by Samari Collier.

Don’t be surprised to see Bret Bielema pull in a sophomore quarterback out of the portal by the time fall arrives. He likes to have positions evened out according to yearly classification, if possible.

In this series, most walk-ones will not be covered as Illinois is no longer in a place where they will need game production from the majority of walk-ons.
