A man of many talents, elite class of 2026 quarterback Ryder Lyons is the real deal


Folsom (Calif.) high school is known for its quarterback play. The program has churned out talented signal-callers who have played at the collegiate and professional levels. The arm they have in the class of 2026 has a chance to be the best of the bunch.

Ryder Lyons is a 6-3, 215-pounder led Folson to a 13-2 record and a state championship as a first-year starter. He finished the season with 38 touchdowns and 8 interceptions while throwing for 3,578 yards and completing 68 percent of his passes. He also rushed for just shy of 1,000 yards and 23 touchdowns on the ground. He’s the real deal.

When you look at his offer list, it’s clear that coaches agree. Lyons has just about every offer imaginable. Due to his talent, his background, and who he is as a person, coaches are doing all they can to secure his commitment. All that said, for the talented signal-caller, football is just part of what makes him special.
