Texas DE Trey Moore returning to Longhorns in 2025
Texas DE Trey Moore will be back on The 40 Acres next fall.
Per ESPN’s Pete Thamel, Moore will return to college with the Longhorns next season rather than entering the 2025 NFL Draft.
“Texas edge Trey Moore has decided to return to the Longhorns after considering the NFL Draft,” Thamel tweeted on Thursday. “Will be one of the sport’s top edges in 2025.”
This comes after it was noted today that Moore was not among the list of underclassmen who had declared to the draft to this point. That list included names for Texas who had already made their announcements like QB Quinn Ewers, OTs Kelvin Banks and Cameron Williams, RB Jaydon Blue, and WRs Matthew Golden and Isaiah Bond.
Moore just finished his first season at Texas after transferring in from UTSA.
In total, Moore has posted 138 tackles, 27.5 sacks, nine deflections, six forced fumbles, and an interception in his collegiate career at defensive end. That includes 36 tackles, 5.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, and a deflection as a junior this season for the Longhorns. That had him second overall in fumbles forced, fourth in sacks, and top-fifteen in tackles on their defense.

Moore was a key pickup over last offseason for Texas. Now, rather than being the latest from the Longhorns to go pro, he’ll be back there for a senior season in Austin.
