Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers has reportedly made a decision on his NFL future amid rumors that he may transfer in 2025.
Quinn Ewers stunned everybody when he announced his plans to return to college for another season last year. Before his announcement, Ewers was projected to be one of the top quarterbacks taken in the 2024 NFL Draft.
According to a report from Anwar Richardson of Orangebloods.com, Ewers will indeed declare for the 2025 NFL Draft this year. With that, the highly-touted Arch Manning will finally take over the Longhorns offense, ending speculation that the nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning will also transfer.
The 2025 NFL Draft class is headlined by Colorado Buffaloes star Shedeur Sanders, Georgia’s Carson Beck, Alabama’s Jalen Milroe and Miami’s Cameron Ward. It’s not considered a heavy class by any means, but as always, it depends on if these QBs land with the right team and system.
