Boise State released its first public depth chart of the 2026 college football season on Monday, and there were a few surprises on the two-deep. 

Redshirt freshman right tackle Jacob Tracy was not listed on the depth chart. Tracy was pushing returning starter Daylon Metoyer for playing time during fall camp but suffered a season-ending injury before Week 1, Boise State head coach Spencer Danielson said during Monday’s press conference. 

The kickoff and placekicking battles between Colton Boomer and Canaan Moore remain ongoing. Boomer kicked off in Week 1 against No. 2 Oregon while Moore handled field goals and PATs. 

Boise State and Oregon both declined to release depth charts ahead of their Week 1 showdown. The Ducks erased a 10-point first-half deficit to secure a 34-27 victory at Autzen Stadium.
