PFF’s Max Chadwick and Dalton Wasserman: “Texas’ new star quarterback will have high expectations heading into 2025, but he played well in limited action last season. Across 233 snaps, including two starts, Manning posted an 88.0 PFF overall grade with six big-time throws and two turnover-worthy plays.”

With Quinn Ewers off to the NFL, the Arch Manning era at Texas is officially underway. But while buzz is already building around his long-term potential, fans and scouts may need to be patient. Though some have projected Manning as a candidate to go No.

Texas football is poised to be one of the top teams in college football once again. This season, the team will be led by Arch Manning rather than Quinn Ewers, who declared for the NFL Draft and was selected by the Miami Dolphins. Manning has accomplished something rare in today’s era of college sports.
