Remaining backup for opener
Olson will not be the Minutemen's starting quarterback for their game at New Mexico State on Saturday, 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Olson finished the Minutemen's 2022 season as their starting quarterback. But following the transfer additions of Taisun Phommachanh (from Georgia Tech) and Carlos Davis (from Western Carolina), Olson seemed likely to return to a reserve role. And with head coach Don Brown naming Phommachanh as the starter Monday, it appears that has just happened, reducing some promise Olson had built up in 2022.

Demoted to backup
Olson will not be starting at quarterback against Stony Brook on Saturday, Kyle Grabowski of the Daily Hampshire Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Olson has started the first two games of the year, but has not been able to get much going at all with the offense. Gino Campiotti will step in as the starter in Week 3 and could keep the job moving forward if he impresses.
