Quinn Tucker Ewers (; born March 15, 2003) is an American football quarterback for the Texas Longhorns. He was a member of the Ohio State Buckeyes as a freshman and transferred to the University of Texas at Austin.

Early life

Ewers was born on March 15, 2003, in San Antonio, Texas.[1] He spent his early years in Pleasanton, Texas, before his family moved to Southlake, Texas when he was eight.[2] Ewers attended Carroll Senior High School, where he played football under coach Riley Dodge and also previously played baseball.[3] As a sixth grader, he was offered a football scholarship by Graham Harrell.[4] As a sophomore, he completed 291 of 402 passes for 3,998 yards with 45 touchdowns against three interceptions.[5] Ewers and Southlake Carroll advanced to the Texas 6A Division I quarterfinals before being defeated by Duncanville.[6] Ewers finished his junior season with 2,442 yards and 28 touchdown passes in eight games, missing six games due to injury, as Carroll advanced to the 6A Division I Texas State Championship Game before losing to Westlake High School.[7] [8] Following the season, he participated in the 2021 Elite 11 competition, but only managed sixth place in the competition.[9] [10] [11]

Going into his senior year, Ewers was considered by multiple outlets to be the top overall recruit in the 2022 recruiting class.[12] [13] [14] Ewers initially committed to the Texas Longhorns in August 2020, where he would have been the first quarterback since Vince Young to receive a perfect 1.000 247Sports composite rating.[15] Ewers would later decommit from the Longhorns in October, before committing to play for the Ohio State Buckeyes in November 2020.[16]

College career

Ewers officially enrolled at Ohio State in August 2021 and joined the team for preseason training camp.[17] Ewers made his debut on November 20, 2021 against the Michigan State Spartans, taking two snaps at the end of the game in the Buckeyes' win.[18] [19]

Texas (2022–present)

In December 2021, Ewers announced that he was transferring to the University of Texas to play for the Longhorns.[20] He was named the Longhorns' starting quarterback entering the 2022 season.[21] During the 2023 Big 12 Championship Football Game, Ewers set the record for most passing yards in a single conference championship game for the Big 12 Conference, and was named MVP for the conference title.[22]
