Colts Quarterback Evaluation
The Colts are set to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers with a scheduled 30-visit session in early April. With formal interviews already held during the recent combine, this visit gives the team ample opportunity to assess his potential before the NFL draft begins on April 24.
College Career and Performance
Quinn Ewers has been a central figure for the Texas Longhorns, stepping in as a three-year starter after his transfer from Ohio State in 2022. Over 36 games, he completed 737 of 1,135 passes for 9,128 yards, recording 68 touchdowns and 24 interceptions, along with 8 rushing touchdowns. His statistics highlight his significant contribution to raising the team’s performance and securing notable wins, both on the road and during bowl games.
Strengths and Areas for Improvement
Ewers has proven his ability to lead his team to success, reflecting his status as one of the top high school recruits in the country. His ability to consistently drive the offense forward has been a key factor in Texas’ recent achievements. However, there are concerns about his processing speed and decision-making under pressure—areas that could see improvement with additional coaching and experience.
Future Role and Draft Considerations
With the Colts already featuring Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones as key parts of their quarterback roster, the team appears to be looking for a developmental option to serve as a potential third-string quarterback. The draft, likely to include a Day 3 selection, presents an opportunity to bring in a young prospect who can grow into a larger role over time. Ewers’ performance in college and his recent interactions with the Colts could well position him as a candidate in the third to fifth round range.
The upcoming evaluation will be crucial in determining whether the Colts see him as not just a developmental asset, but also as a true quarterback of the future.
