Breaking News:Gunnar Helm announce his departure and decommit from Texas tech due to….

Ewers battled multiple injuries throughout this past season, including an oblique strain that he sustained in Week 3 against Texas-San Antonio that caused him to miss two games. He also had a high-ankle sprain towards the end of the regular season that carried into the CFP, an injury that affected his mobility and saw Texas use backup quarterback Arch Manning on running plays.

In his three seasons as Texas’ starting quarterback, Ewers led the Longhorns to a 27-9 overall record, the 2023 Big 12 championship and two appearances in the College Football Playoff semifinals — the former of the two being the program’s first ever CFP appearance.

He will finish his time in Austin with the Longhorns having completed 64.9% of his passes for 9,128 yards and 68 passing touchdowns, adding eight rushing touchdowns.

Ewers is listed as the No. 5 quarterback on ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr.’s big board of prospects for April’s NFL draft. He is expected to be one of the more touted quarterbacks in this year’s draft class, one that already consists of Miami’s Cam Ward, Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders, Ole Miss’s Jaxson Dart and Alabama’s Jalen Milroe to name a few

Perhaps, Ewers best game this season came in Week 2 on the road at Michigan, when he completed 66.7% of his pass for 246 yards and three touchdowns in the Longhorns’ ranked victory. Another highlight moment this past season for Ewers came in the CFP Peach Bowl quarterback vs. No. 4 Arizona State. Facing a fourth-and-13, Ewers connected with wide receiver Matthew Golden for a 28-yard touchdown to keep Texas’ season alive, and ultimately send them to the semifinal.
