As experienced quarterback Quinn Ewers continues to recover from an injury, Arch Manning will make the first ever start of his college football career on Saturday.
Texas football head coach Steve Sarkisian named highly touted sophomore Arch Manning as the starter heading into the Longhorns' Week 4 matchup with Louisiana Monroe. Manning did not start in any games during his freshman season, and Quinn Ewers was once again named the starter entering the 2024 campaign. Manning stepped in for Ewers after the quarterback suffered an abdominal injury during Texas' game against UTSA on Sept. 14.
'There’s nothing like being in the game. Playing in front of 105,000 people is not the easiest thing to do. I’m really proud of Arch.' The redshirt freshman, who is the nephew of NFL greats Peyton and Eli Manning, will soon take the field for the first time in his college football career as a starting quarterback. Manning threw four touchdowns and used his legs to score on another occasion via a 67-yard scramble. For his efforts, Manning received SEC Co-Freshman of the Week honors.
