EA Sports has released the deluxe cover for the upcoming College Football ’25 game and Texas fans will see a familiar name on the cover.
Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers’ iconic No. 3 is one of three primary jerseys on the main decal, with Michigan running back Donovan Edwards and Colorado cornerback/receiver Travis Hunter joining him. In the background, Alabama and Georgia quarterbacks Jalen Milroe and Carson Beck are also visible.
Ewers made the decision to return to Texas after leading the Longhorns to a 12-2 season and their first appearance in the College Football Playoffs. Now, with his team entering the SEC, Ewers has a chance to compete for the Heisman Trophy, increase his NFL draft stock and cement the Longhorns as a powerhouse in their new conference.
Although he did not play much in the Texas spring game, this was due to head coach Steve Sarkisian’s confidence in his quarterback as a starter. Arch Manning’s shadow and pedigree may be important on the sidelines, but Ewers will be the face of Texas football heading into the 2024 season.
Texas will face defending national champion Michigan and Edwards in Week 2 on September 7.
