QB Jack Plummer named Purdue starter

Quarterback Jack Plummer was named the starter for Purdue, making it three consecutive seasons the Boilermakers will open with a new quarterback.

Plummer, a redshirt junior, faces Oregon State next week in his 10th career start. He is 2-7 in his career as the starter.

He was the starter in 2019 until a season-ending ankle injury.

Head coach Jeff Brohm said last week he was still settling on a starting quarterback.
