Watch: This Rutgers football quarterback recruit has thrown 26 touchdowns his senior season (and just one interception)

Class of 2023 quarterback Van Weber is a name to watch, especially with the senior season he is having.

A standout at Rutherford High School (Rutherford, N.J.), Weber visited Rutgers earlier this season for the 66-7 win over Wagner.

On Friday, Rutherford beat Mahwah 42-14 in the North Jersey Section 1, Group 2 quarterfinals. Weber started the scoring for Rutherford with a 65-yard touchdown pass.

With the win, Rutherford is now 9-0.

On the season, he has completed 101 of his 144 passing attempts. He has 1,722 passing yards with 26 touchdowns and an interception.

Last week in a win over Wood-Ridge, Weber was 14-of-21, 249 yards. He was impressive in helping Rutherford capture the NJIC tournament championship with the win.

Here are Weber’s highlights against Wood-Ridge:

 

Weber moves well in the pocket and has the looks and feel of the pass rush with his patient movement. He throws a nice deep ball and while he needs some mechanical work in terms of his ball placement and accuracy, there are a lot of tools here for a college offensive coordinator to work with in terms of his physical skillset, his natural ability and how he reads the game.
