Rutgers will have a quarterback battle this fall.

Before this weekend, Artur Sitkowski was the only quarterback on the roster who had taken a snap in a college football game, but now he has some competition after Texas Tech graduate transfer McLane Carter announced his transfer to Rutgers.

Carter won the starting job at Texas Tech last fall, but missed most of the season after suffering an ankle injury in the season opener.

Appearing in nine games over two seasons at Texas Tech and starting three, Carter has completed 51 of 97 passes for 677 yards with 4 touchdowns and 4 interceptions.

Carter will compete with Sitkowski for the starting spot this offseason
