Arch Manning’s media threshing for the NFL 2026 draft started at the end of the 2025 draft on Saturday.
The quarter-back of Texas Longhorns was pinned as one of the first recovery choices in 2026 when the simulated projects began to be released. Several simulated projects have passed n ° 1 or n ° 2 in total. At least one dropped it in n ° 8. Cleveland’s Browns, New Orleans saints and Indianapolis colts were operated as some of the teams that could select it.

There was no indication of what Manning will declare the draft after the 2025 season with the Longhorns. He could still play one more year with Texas and completely give up the project.
ESPN NFL’s initiate, Adam Schefter, warned earlier this month that Manning could wait for another year.
“First of all, there is no guarantee that Arch Manning is released after next year,” said Schefter on “Get Up” by ESPN. “It seems that he could certainly stay beyond next year.
“I am not an initiate of university football, but none of the Mannings has never been released early, and I do not know, with Nile Money being what it is, why would Arch do that? So, all this conversation on Tanking for Arch next year, he could be in the draft in 2027, not even next year.”

He rejected his first year to Austin, which means that he meets the three years withdrawn from the secondary obligation to enter the draft of the NFL if he chose in 2026.
He is expected to enter the 2025 season as a quarter of the longhorns after having had to wait last season behind Quinn Ewers.
In 10 appearances last season, including two departures due to the injuries of Ewers, Manning launched 939 yards with nine affected and two interceptions. He also ran for 108 yards in 25 races with four affected on the ground.
