Zack Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Peterson completed 21/39 passes for 381 yards and 5 TDs in Durango’s 49-6 win over Cimarron-Memorial on Friday night. It was the junior QB’s first game without an interception and his most productive passing effort of the season. He made some strong throws downfield and navigated the pocket well making plays with his legs when things broke down. Peterson is still on the raw side as a passer and needs to continue to cut down on the turnovers but has a strong performance to build on coming down the stretch.

Peterson had a great sophomore campaign and will look to blow up even more this season. Peterson shows great size, athleticism, and arm strength in the pocket, making him a great QB college prospect.

Peterson moved into the official rankings after being added to the 2027 watchlist back in the spring. The junior QB out of Durango has put together a strong offseason showing off his accuracy and arm strength as a passer in recent 7v7s. He’s flashed good touch and placement on the deep ball and can change arm angles to fit into tight windows. Peterson’s a player to keep an eye on if he’s able to earn the starting job this fall.

Peterson was a new addition to PRZ NV’s 2027 WL in April’s update after impressing our scouts at the Recruit Vegas Combine and Showcase last month. The 6’2″/180 QB out of Durango HS had his sophomore season limited by injury but will be looking to put his name on Nevada’s radar with a strong junior season in the fall. He’s still developing in his mechanics and fundamentals of the position but has shown some nice touch as a passer in recent 7v7 events. Peterson will be a QB to keep an eye on in 2025.
