No. 22 San Diego State rallies past Boise State 27-16
No. 22 San Diego State claimed the Mountain West's West Division title with a 27-16 victory over Boise StateNOVEMBER 26, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Listed on Week 1 depth chart Sears (lower body) was listed as the backup on the Week 1 depth chart.
Impact Sears has been dealing with a lower body injury throughout camp that held him back from competing to the best of his ability with Hank Bachmeier for the starting spot. Sears is now healthy to begin the opener and could see snaps down the road.

Entering season as backup Sears (lower body) will not be the starting quarterback to begin the 2021-22 season, B.J. Rains of the Idaho Press-Tribune reports.
Impact Sears looked strong in three appearances with Boise State last season, completing 23-of-27 passes for 332 yards and three touchdowns. He had a chance to earn the starting job over Hank Bachmeier in camp but his lower-body issue set him back enough to force him into a backup role. Once healthy, the 6-foot-2 senior should be considered the clear-cut No. 2 quarterback to start the year.

Nursing lower leg injury Sears (lower body) suffered a setback at practice this weekend, Ron Counts of the Idaho Statesman reports.
Impact Sears was attempting to return to practice after a previous lower body injury and ultimately had another setback. The issue does not sound too serious, as coach Andy Avalos hopes he can return by the middle of this week. He is competing with Hank Bachmeier for the starting job under center in 2021.

Competing for starting job Sears will compete in fall camp to start under center for the opener against UCF, Jay Tust of KTVB Channel 7 reports.
Impact Sears and Hank Bachmeier will reportedly rotate between the first-string and second-string offense until one of the two separates himself for the starting gig. Sears performed well in limited action last season, completing 85.2 percent of his 27 pass attempts for 332 yards and three touchdowns, but he missed a chunk of the season due to injury. Should Sears land the job, it comes with some impressive wideouts to throw to, including senior Khalil Shakir (lower body), who is expected to be among the better fantasy receiver options in 2021.

Healthy for spring Sears (undisclosed) played in Boise State's spring game.
Impact Sears dealt with injuries during his first season at Boise State but started the offseason on a good note by being healthy and effective in spring. He will have an uphill battle in unseating Hank Bachmeier for the starting job this fall, though a new coaching staff could help his cause.
