Texas star Quinn Ewers declares for NFL Draft
Texas Longhorns star quarterback Quinn Ewers made a significant announcement on Wednesday, declaring his intention to enter the NFL Draft. Ewers took to his social media platforms to express his gratitude to his coaches and teammates at the University of Texas for their support and guidance throughout his collegiate career.
In a heartfelt video message, Ewers reflected on his lifelong dream of playing football for the Longhorns and the unforgettable experiences he had wearing the burnt orange and white. He credited the relationships he built with his coaches and teammates as invaluable and expressed his deep appreciation for the opportunity to represent his home state and university on the football field.
Amid swirling rumors about Ewers potentially entering the transfer portal, it was reported that he had received a lucrative $6 million offer to play for another team next season. However, Ewers ultimately decided to forego the transfer option and officially declare for the NFL Draft, marking the next chapter in his football career.
The conclusion of Ewers’ 2024 season with a heartbreaking loss in the College Football Playoff semifinals against Ohio State highlighted his impressive performance on the field. With 3,472 passing yards and 31 touchdown passes, Ewers showcased his talent and potential as a top quarterback prospect in the upcoming draft.
As Ewers prepares for the NFL Draft, the speculation surrounding his potential landing spot remains uncertain.
