Texas Longhorns football has been a big piece of news over the past week during the 2025 NFL Draft. An immense amount of talent being taken highly, and also players sliding further than expected.
Most notably, quarterback Quinn Ewers has been shaking the news as his reports with Jon Gruden were very positive, and it took until the Miami Dolphins selected him with the No. 231 pick in the seventh round.
His former coach Steve Sarkisian also mentioned Ewers’ NIL situation, saying that he did not take any money from the Texas NIL collective and relied on his true name, image, and likeness.
It has been reported that for Texas football’s 2025 roster, they will be spending between $35-40 million.
As seen with the reigning national champions in the Ohio State Buckeyes, they fielded one of the most expensive rosters in college football as the new era of NIL is among us.
Texas blew their number out of the water, and now are sitting between that $35-40 million mark. Their roster is explosive in every position and a true force to be reckoned with in 2025.
Longhorns football now revolves around Arch Manning, the new face of college football, who is following Ewers’ footsteps and not taking a single dime from the school, and is earning more money than anyone on the Longhorns. All of the deals Manning acquired were through his family and without any help from the school.
This move by Manning allows them to build the rest of the roster to be competitive on the national level.
The 2025-26 season will kick off for the Longhorns in Columbus, Ohio as they face a Cotton Bowl rematch against the national champion Buckeyes.
