A recent report has stirred speculation about the future of Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers, with rumors circulating that he is contemplating returning to college football instead of making the leap to the NFL. The report suggests that several NFL scouts believe Ewers could benefit from another year in college, potentially strengthening his draft prospects. According to a popular social media account, NFL Rookie Watch, Ewers could enter the transfer portal and join a top-10 college team for the 2025 season, as Texas is expected to move forward with quarterback Arch Manning.
This has sparked intrigue among Oregon Ducks fans, as there are questions about whether another transfer portal quarterback might be coming to Eugene to lead the team. Dillon Gabriel, who has been a standout for the Ducks, is expected to test his skills in the NFL, leaving a vacancy at the quarterback position for the 2025 season. Could Ewers be the next transfer portal addition to Oregon, following in the footsteps of Dillon Gabriel, Bo Nix, and Anthony Brown, who all played for Oregon in the past four seasons?
However, before fans begin to entertain the idea of Ewers transferring to Oregon, Luke McMurtrey, an NFL agent with Sportstars, quickly debunked the rumors. McMurtrey, representing Ewers’ team, took to social media to call the report “FAKE NEWS,” firmly denying any truth to the speculation. Despite the buzz, it appears Ewers’ future remains uncertain, with the quarterback still weighing his options. As the college football landscape continues to evolve, Ewers’ decision will be closely watched by fans, coaches, and NFL scouts alike.
In the meantime, the Oregon Ducks remain focused on the upcoming season and their search for a potential quarterback to take over in 2025. With a track record of success with transfer quarterbacks in recent years, Oregon could be looking to continue that trend, whether with Ewers or another talented player.
