Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers declared for the 2025 NFL Draft on Wednesday.

Ewers guided the Longhorns to two College Football Playoff appearances and posted a 21-5 record as a starter over the past two years.

Quarterback Arch Manning is expected to take the controls in Texas next season. He is the grandson of former NFL quarterback Archie Manning and nephew of Super Bowl-winning QBs Peyton and Eli Manning.

Ewers passed for 3,472 yards and 31 touchdowns this season and 9,128 and 68, respectively, in three years since transferring from Ohio State.

I'm truly thankful for the opportunity to play football in my home state for the best university in the world. With prayer and careful consideration, I'm officially declaring for the NFL Draft."
