Quinn Ewers has reportedly made a decision on the next phase of his football career after a disappointing run in the College Football Playoff.
The Texas Longhorns had their hopes of lifting a national title dashed in last week’s Cotton Bowl, losing to Ohio State 28-14. The loss marked the second straight year they fell short at the semi-final stage.
“Coming up short two years, it’s tough,” Ewers said after the game.
It’s now being reported that he has decided to enter the NFL Draft over a potentially lucrative opportunity in college.
“Quinn Ewers has reportedly “made up his mind” and is declaring for the NFL Draft with a potential announcement within the next 24-48 hours,” NFL Rookie Watch notes.
College players not participating in next week’s championship game have until Wednesday to declare for the draft. It’s rumored that there is a $6 million offer on the table with another school, but as the aforementioned source would have it, the QB will test his value elsewhere.

There’s plenty of interest in Ewers around the country, with schools such as Alabama, Notre Dame, UNC, Oregon, and Ohio State all thought to be keen on recruiting the QB.
Per the report, he’s “turning down the college money and is betting on himself in the NFL.” However, the source also cites scouts who claim the player will need to give an excellent account of himself in pre-draft workouts to even have a shot at the second round.
