Offensive lineman Quincy McGee has played his final snaps for the Ole Miss Rebels and head coach Lane Kiffin. On Thursday, McGee revealed from his social media account that he would be forgoing the rest of his college eligibility and declaring for the 2024 NFL Draft.

McGee made his announcement with this message attached to the Ole Miss program and fan base.

“First, I want to give my thanks to God for giving me the ability to play the game I love. Next, I want to thank the Ole Miss community and also the UAB community for giving me a chance to play at the next level. I will forever cherish all the relationships I made along the way. Lastly, I want to thank my family for being here every step of the way. I can never thank y’all enough for the unconditional love and support along my journey.”

“With that being said, it’s GO time. I will officially be entering my name into the 2024 NFL Draft. This has been a dream of mine since my first time touching the field. I look forward to what’s next,” wrote McGee via X.

The three-day event will be broadcasted throughout the weekend on ESPN and NFL Network.

To be eligible for the NFL Draft, players must be at least three years removed from their final year of high school while having used up their collegiate eligibility. Underclassmen are able to request league approval to become eligible for the draft, as are players who have graduated prior to using up all of their collegiate eligibility.

Last season, 69 players were granted special eligibility for the 2023 NFL Draft. 13 underclassmen who had completed their college degrees were also deemed eligible to be selected.

The deadline to declare for the 2024 NFL Draft is on January 15. NFL teams will receive a full list of eligible players in the class on January 19.
