On Saturday night, former NFL head coach Jon Gruden made headlines with a heartfelt endorsement of former Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers, who was selected by the Miami Dolphins in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Gruden, known for his deep passion for quarterback development, shared a photo on X of himself with Ewers, both smiling on a football field, with Gruden proudly wearing a Chevrolet cap and Ewers sporting a "Gruden's QB Class" shirt.
The post, shared via Gruden’s @BarstoolGruden account, quickly gained traction among football fans.
Gruden’s message was clear: “Welcome to the great state of Florida, Quinn! Miami got themselves quite the arm and a young man that loves football!”
The statement reflects Gruden’s confidence in Ewers’ potential to make an impact in the NFL, despite being a late-round pick.

Ewers, who cemented his legacy as one of Texas’ best quarterbacks, now joins a Dolphins team led by head coach Mike McDaniel, with dynamic receivers like Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle to support his growth.
Many have already deemed Ewers as a steal for the Dolphins, praising his fit with the team’s offensive scheme and ability to learn from a seasoned quarterback in Tua Tagovailoa.
Gruden’s endorsement carries weight, given his history of mentoring quarterbacks through his “QB Camp” series and his successful coaching stints with the Las Vegas Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, including a Super Bowl win in 2003.
As Ewers begins his NFL journey, Gruden’s words serve as a powerful reminder of the young quarterback’s potential to shine in South Florida.
