Quinn Ewers has no plans on leaving the Texas Longhorns. And he never did.
According to Ewers himself, those reports were false, and Ewers practiced on Monday as his team prepared for their Saturday matchup vs. Vanderbilt. Ewers responded to the post on his personal Instagram account, labeling it as 'Fake News'.The rumor originated after an Instagram post from 247 Sports indicated that Ewers had intended to forgo the remainder of the season in order to prepare for the NFL Draft.
Texas coach Steve Sarkisian, however, did speak during that media availability and was adamant in his confidence in Ewers as the starter. "Quinn's our starting quarterback," Sarkisian said. "I appreciate the fact that we're fortunate enough to have a backup like Arch that could come into the game and provide a spark, in some sense, but at the end of the day, Quinn's our starter, but I think we've got to do a better job around him."
The Longhorns, with Ewers under center as the starter, will take on Vanderbilt at 3:15 pm in Nashville on SEC Network.MORE: Texas vs. Vanderbilt Kick-Off Time Set: How to Watch & Betting OddsMatt Galatzan is the Managing Editor and Publisher of Texas Longhorns In SI and Texas A&M Aggies On SI and a long-time member of the Football Writer’s Association of America.
