Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord will declare for the NFL Draft after leading the nation with 4,779 yards, ESPN reported Friday.
A senior this past season, McCord broke DeShaun Watson’s ACC record for passing yards in a season. The former Ohio State starter played just one season with the Orange.
McCord had been in search of an NCAA eligibility waiver for one more season after he was limited to five games as a freshman for Ohio State in 2021 but has now dropped that pursuit.
While leading Syracuse to a 10-3 record and a victory in the Holiday Bowl over Washington State, McCord was fourth in the nation with 35 passing touchdowns.
McCord helped Ohio State to an 11-2 record in 2023 with 3,170 passing yards and 24 TDs. In four seasons, three with Ohio State, he passed for 8,555 yards with 61 touchdowns and 20 interceptions.
