Nevada Wolf Pack football has 4-way quarterback battle ahead of 2023 season opener at USC

With the Nevada football team getting ready to start practice for the fall season, coach Ken Wilson addressed some key issues facing the team at the Mountain West Conference media days last week in Las Vegas.

The biggest issue for Wolf Pack fans is who will play quarterback. Wilson mostly used senior Nate Cox there last year, with Shane Illingworth also getting playing time.

This year, Wilson brought in Brendon Lewis from Colorado and has at least three more QBs expected to compete for the job: Illingworth, AJ Bianco and Jax Leatherwood.

Wilson coached against Lewis when he was an assistant at Oregon and noted his speed and agility.
