Quinn Ewers has easy decision to make based on NIL report

The decision should be a no-brainer for Ewers, who could also declare for the 2025 NFL Draft.

But after an uneven season, Ewers would benefit from an extra year in college — and if it comes with $6 million, that's even better.

This season, Ewers has played in 12 games and is 250-of-376 (66.5 percent) for 2,867 yards (7.6 yards per attempt), 26 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.

In two losses to Georgia, Ewers was 52-of-89 (58.4 percent) for 569 yards (6.4 yards per attempt), three touchdowns and three interceptions.

Ewers would certainly make more money next season taking the $6 million offer than he would going pro.

Per Over The Cap, only the top five picks of the 2025 NFL Draft will earn at least $6 million next season.

Ewers might be a third-round pick — at best — if he declares, which would put him in line to earn between $5.9 million and $6.4 million over the course of his entire four-year rookie contract.

Regardless of what Ewers decides, he likely only has three more games (at most) as Longhorns starting quarterback.

With backup five-star 2023 high-school recruit Arch Manning waiting in the wings, it's time for the Longhorns to move on from Ewers.

That doesn't mean the rest of college football is ready to quit him. If someone's looking to hand him $6 million, it would be surprising if Ewers isn't on a college sideline in 2025.
