Washington QB Jacob Eason Declares for NFL Draft

Washington Huskies quarterback Jacob Eason announced today that he will be entering the NFL Draft and forgoing his final season of eligibility.

The 6’6 junior was a consensus 5-star and the #1 QB prospect in the country coming out of nearby Lake Stevens high school. He spurned the Huskies initially and committed to Georgia where there was a clear path to the starting job. There was thought that Eason might change his mind when Mark Richt was let go but Kirby Smart came in and got him to hold his commitment.
