Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers is declaring for the NFL Draft, ending his college football career.
Ewers has been Texas’ starting quarterback for the last two seasons, amassing a record of 21-5 as the team’s signal caller.
Ewers is a former top overall recruit in the nation and came to Texas after originally committing to Ohio State.
Behind center, Ewers led Texas to its only two postseason victories in the College Football Playoff and the Longhorns’ only pair of appearances in the sport’s national-championship tournament.
Yet, some shouts from the Longhorns’ fan base grew frustrated with Ewers throughout the season for not doing enough to lead the team to victory.
No doubt some of those assertions came due to fellow blue-chip recruit Arch Manning serving as Ewers’ backup. The vacancy in the starting role seemingly has already been filled by the nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning.

Many wondered, in a move similar to now-Miami quarterback Carson Beck, if Ewers would stay in college for another year.
More to come.
