4-star QB in 2026 puts Oregon Ducks among top teams

The Oregon Ducks have landed among the top schools for 4-star 2026 QB Jonas Williams.

The Oregon Ducks are looking to carry this current recruiting momentum with them into the future, and it appears to be working early on.

While the 2026 class still seems far away, the Ducks are in a great position to land one of the top quarterbacks available in 4-star QB Jonas Williams.

Williams recently announced his top four schools, putting Oregon alongside LSU, Alabama, and Ohio State. Williams is rated by the 247Sports Composite as the No. 8 QB in the 2026 class, and the No. 89 overall player.

He stands at 6-foot-3, 185 pounds, and is rated as the No. 1 overall player from the state of Illinois.

The Ducks currently have one quarterback commitment in the class of 2025 in Akili Smith Jr., and there is a chance that they could try to add another one if they are able to successfully flip 4-star QB Keelon Russell from the Alabama Crimson Tide before signing day.

We know from past history that Oregon is happy to take multiple QBs in a recruiting class and stack their roster with blue-chip passers, so this would be a great get for Dan Lanning and his team.
