Ex-NFL QB Urges Arch Manning Not to Declare for 2027 Draft After OK Loss
The prince of the Manning dynasty threw for 3 TDs in the Red River Rivalry, but a costly error at the end cost Texas the game.
Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III has advised Arch Manning, the Texas Longhorns' quarterback, not to declare for the 2027 NFL draft following a tough loss to Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry. Manning, who has thrown for three touchdowns but also had two costly interceptions, including one that led to the game-winning field goal, was criticized for his performance.
Griffin, a Heisman Trophy winner and current analyst for Fox Sports, believes that Manning needs more experience before entering the draft. The loss was a significant blow to Texas, who had previously been ranked No. 1. Despite the defeat, Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian praised Manning's efforts, noting that the quarterback gave it his all and made some great plays.
