After experiencing limited playing time while backing up Quinn Ewers in his first two years in Texas, Arch Manning opened his first season as a full -time starts at the end of August.
He continued to throw in 170 yards in Longhorns’ seasonal loss to Ohio State. Texas recovered after the defeat and won its next three games in a row. However, a disappointing view in a loss for Florida in week 6 asked several questions about whether the once highly developed manning would live up to expectations in Austin.
The former Texas, which runs back and current Atlanta Falcons star Bijan Robinson, weighs in Manning’s turbulent start to the 2025 season. Robinson advised the signal call to “remain consistently”, set the noise and lean on his support system.

“I want to say just keep staying consistently,” Robinson said during a recent performance at “The Rich Eisen Show.”

But this last Saturday, Florida’s defense kept pretty much manning in check. He ended the loss 29-21 with two touchdowns and two interceptions.
In five starts this year, Manning has thrown in 1,151 yards and 11 touchdowns with five interceptions. Manning’s mobility has also flashed this season. He has collected 160 meters on the ground and five rushing touchdowns.
