Report: Texas QB Quinn Ewers Expected to Declare for 2025 NFL Draft

Reports say Quinn Ewers will play final game at DKR on Saturday.

Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers is expected to enter the 2025 NFL Draft following this season, according to two sources who spoke to Chip Brown of 247Sports. If accurate, Saturday’s game against Kentucky (2:30 p.m. CT, ABC) would mark Ewers’ final regular-season home game as a Longhorn.

When asked Monday about the possibility of it being his final home game, Ewers remained noncommittal. “Who knows?” he said. “I’m just trying to win this week.”

Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian also weighed in during Monday’s media session, saying, “No idea,” when asked about Ewers’ future.

Ewers has been a pivotal player for Texas this season, completing 68.4% of his passes (169-of-247) for 21 touchdowns, six interceptions, and one rushing score. The redshirt sophomore has thrown a touchdown pass in 21 consecutive games, a streak that ranks second in school history behind Colt McCoy’s 29-game streak from 2007 to 2009.

Among Ewers’ highlights this season was a dominant performance in a 49-17 win over Florida, where he threw five touchdown passes—all at least 20 yards. The feat places him alongside elite company, as only three other SEC quarterbacks—Alabama’s Tua Tagovailoa (2019), Georgia’s Aaron Murray (2011), and Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott (2014)—have achieved it since 1996.

With Ewers at the helm, the Longhorns have secured 10 consecutive true road wins, a streak they aim to continue in the coming weeks. As speculation around his NFL future grows, all eyes will be on Ewers and the Longhorns when they take on Kentucky on Saturday.
