This year's candidates were released on Tuesday, and to no surprise, Texas starting quarterback Quinn Ewers made the grade.

Texas football shared a Twitter photo celebrating Ewers making the watch list, but its graphic design drew unintended attention!

Ewers' name is at the top of the graphic, with the name "Manning" bolded right below it in much larger letters behind him.

The photo quickly drew massive attention. College football fans interpreted it as the Texas freshman third-string QB "watching over" Ewers, patiently waiting to devour his spotlight and job as starting quarterback!
