Jake Retzlaff is a college football quarterback, playing for the BYU Cougars, as of 2024. Jake Retzlaff attended Centennial High School in Corona, where he began his football career. During his junior year, he amassed 1,067 passing yards and eight touchdowns. His senior season in high school was cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic. Upon graduating high school, Retzlaff committed to Golden West College, where he began his collegiate career.

In 2021, Retzlaff made an impressive debut as a true freshman at Golden West College. He threw for 3,302 yards and 23 touchdowns over 12 games. His performance earned him recognition and set the stage for his subsequent transfer to Riverside City College. In the 2022 season, he started all 13 games and threw for 4,596 yards and 44 touchdowns. He set school records for both, passing yards in a game (529) and passing touchdowns in a single game (6). His remarkable performance made him the top-rated junior college quarterback in the nation.

Retzlaff joined BYU ahead of the 2023 season as a highly anticipated player. Initially serving as the backup to Kedon Slovis, he earned the starting role after Slovis suffered an injury. In his first start against West Virginia, Retzlaff threw for 210 yards despite a tough loss (37-7). He secured his first touchdown pass at the FBS level in a subsequent game against Iowa State. As of November 2024, Retzlaff has solidified his position as BYU's starting quarterback. He has completed 137 of 229 passes for 1,872 yards and 18 touchdowns while also contributing significantly on the ground with rushing stats that include over 300 yards and three touchdowns.
