Rizk lost out on Stanford's starting quarterback gig to Ben Gulbranson, per ESPN.

After spending most of his five seasons at Oregon State as a backup, Gulbranson enters his final college season as Stanford's starting quarterback. This means Rizk will battle with Elijah Brown for the backup role, though Brown might have the inside track for the No. 2 gig. Rizk spent the last two years at UCF, tossing for 904 yards, five touchdowns and two interceptions while completing 61.5 percent of his passes in 2024.
