Texas QB Quinn Ewers continues to get some prominent placement in 2025 NFL mock drafts, but that lofty potential first-round status continues to take hits. Perhaps the biggest jolt to Ewers as a draft prospect came Saturday night,

The Longhorns opted to bench quarterback Quinn Ewers in the game’s second quarter. Ewers struggled in the first half against the Bulldogs’ defense, which sent quarterback Arch Manning into the game.

Texas football coach Steve Sarkisian said he felt Quinn Ewers, his starting quarterback, "was a little uneasy" in the first half of Saturday night's loss to Georgia. Ewers completed 6 of his 12 pass attempts and turned the ball over twice before giving way to his backup, Arch Manning.
