Ewers was the final quarterback selected in last year’s NFL Draft despite entering the season projected as a top draft pick.

With a start against Cincinnati, Ewers will become the first former Texas quarterback to start a game since Sam Ehlinger for the Indianapolis Colts at the end of the 2022 season on Jan. 8, 2023.
