Syracuse Orange Football Quarterback Kyle McCord has officially declared for the 2025 NFL Draft. McCord decided to forgo a possible 5th year of college eligibility. Syracuse Head Coach Fran Brown will likely role with Rickie Collins, Jakhari Williams, Luke Carney, or Rich Belin as the 2025 opening day starter against the Tennessee Volunteers. The Orange should have no regrets with how they handled the QB situation this offseason by trying to get McCord back from one more year after a record-setting campaign.

Jackson Holzer reacts to Kyle McCord entering the 2025 NFL Draft on this edition of the Locked On Syracuse Podcast.
