Syracuse quarterback Garrett Shrader has earned a spot on the Davey O’Brien award preseason watchlist. The honor is given to the best quarterback at the end of the season. The last and only SU passer to win the award was Don McPherson in 1987.

Shrader is entering his third season with the Orange and has amassed a 11-12 record, including an appearance in the 2022 Pinstripe Bowl. He is one of five active FBS quarterbacks with at least 5,000 passing yards and 1,500 rushing yards over their career. Shrader has the second most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in program history, only 12 behind Eric Dungey. Shrader also made the Maxwell award preseason watch list.

The midseason watchlist will be released on Oct. 17 and will contain all active quarterbacks from the preseason watchlist, all players honored as a weekly Great 8 recipient through the season’s first seven weeks and any additional quarterbacks approved by the selection subcommittee.
