Despite Earlier Reports, Teams Continue to Pursue Texas QB Quinn Ewers to Enter Transfer Portal
Transfer Portal Still Looms for Longhorns
As the Texas Longhorns gear up for their College Football Playoff quarterfinal clash with Arizona State in the Peach Bowl, the transfer portal remains a topic of discussion. While the portal closed on Saturday, players in the playoffs or late bowl games still have five days after their season concludes to decide whether to enter.
Quinn Ewers Tempted by $6 Million Offer
This is why rumors surrounding Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers potentially entering the transfer portal instead of declaring for the NFL Draft continue to circulate. A recent report by ON3’s Pete Nakos revealed that Ewers, a former Ohio State transfer, received a $6 million offer from one school to leave Texas and enter the portal.
Speculation Continues Over Ewers’ Future
Although the school making the offer has not been disclosed, speculation about which team might be pursuing Ewers will persist. Reports have indicated that Ewers’ original plan was to enter the NFL Draft, a decision that seemed all but certain. However, the allure of a transfer offer complicates things for the junior quarterback, who has had a successful season for the Longhorns. His decision will undoubtedly have a significant impact on Texas’ future plans.
Arch Manning: The Future of Texas Football
Regardless of Ewers’ decision, Texas is preparing for the future with Arch Manning, who is set to take over the Longhorns’ offense. Manning has already dismissed any thoughts of entering the portal himself, focusing on his role as the team’s future leader.
Focus Shifts to the Peach Bowl Quarterfinals
For now, Ewers’ focus will be on leading the Longhorns to a victory in the College Football Playoff. The Longhorns will face the Sun Devils at noon CT on New Year’s Day in Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
