Juma Otoviano - Set for supporting backfield role Otoviano (undisclosed) is in line to work behind Kahan Griffin in Rice's backfield for 2021, Underdog Dynasty reports.

Impact Otoviano rushed for 195 yards on 45 carries in his two appearances last season and figures to have some role again this year. However, it's believed that Griffin has surpassed him on the depth chart and will be the primary back for the Owls this season.

Luke McCaffrey - In competition for starting job McCaffrey is competing with Wiley Green to win the Rice starting quarterback job, Steve Helwick of Underdog Dynasty reports.

Impact McCaffrey was unable to unseat Adrian Martinez permanently for the starting job at Nebraska, leading to his transfer to Rice in mid-June. Coach Mike Bloomgren indicated that the staff intends to give him some time to get up to speed to compete for the job since McCaffrey is new to the system, so it's possible this competition won't be resolved until late in camp.

Wiley Green - Competing for starting job Green is competing with Luke McCaffrey for Rice's starting quarterback spot, Steve Helwick of Underdog Dynasty reports.

Impact Green saw significant action in both 2018 and 2019 but took a back seat to Mik Collins last year. After learning from Collins, Green is back in the mix competing for the starting gig alongside Nebraska transfer Luke McCaffrey. Head coach Mike Bloomgren indicated that since McCaffrey is new to the team this fall, the staff wants to give him adequate time to compete for the job before naming a starter for Week 1.
