Declares for NFL Draft Blue has declared for the 2025 NFL Draft, according to his X account.

Impact Blue will forgo his senior year of collegiate eligibility. The running back began his collegiate career during 2022, when he barely averaged multiple yards per game and logged less than 50 of them then. However, Blue significantly improved his statistical output that peaked in 2024. Overall, he logged 1,098 all-purpose yards (730 rushing and 368 receiving) and 14 touchdowns (eight rushing and six receiving) across his 15 games for Texas then. Ideally for Blue, all that output and an adequate combine performance can earn him a selection in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Scores twice as receiver in semis Blue had four carries for 16 yards and reeled in five of six targets for 59 yards and two touchdowns during Friday's 28-14 College Football Playoff Semifinal loss to Ohio State.

Impact Blue didn't handle a ton of carries in the contest but made the most of his touches as a receiver, keeping the Longhorns in the game with the team's only two offensive touchdowns on the night. It wasn't enough, and the junior's season comes to a conclusion, having amassed 134 carries for 730 yards and eight touchdowns, adding 42 catches for 368 yards and another six scores. However, Blue's involvement waned a bit down the stretch, totaling five or fewer carries in four of the last five games, and with CJ Baxter (knee) presumably slated to return in 2025 and Quintrevion Wisner etching out a regular role, Blue will have a decision to make regarding the transfer portal.

Runs wild in CFP First Round Blue notched 14 carries for 146 yards and two touchdowns and reeled in all two targets for 31 yards during Saturday's 38-24 victory against Clemson.

Impact Blue paced the Longhorns' backfield with Qunitrevion Wisner (knee) held out during the second half of the contest due to a knee issue and didn't disappoint, reeling off a 77-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter to help put the game away. Wisner is reportedly fine and should be available for CFP Quarterfinal matchup with Arizona State, but Blue's performance has likely earned him some additional run.

Limited action in SEC title game Blue logged two carries for two yards and gathered in 2 of 3 targets for negative eight yards during Saturday's 22-19 overtime defeat against Georgia.

Impact Blue saw just two carries in the SEC title game, which comes as little surprise considering the tailback had an arm injury leading up to the game. He's clearly healthy enough to participate, but it remains to be seen just how involved he'll be in round one of the College Football Playoff against Clemson on Dec. 21.

Arm good to go for SEC Championship Blue (arm) is available for the 2024 SEC Championship Game between Texas and Georgia scheduled for Saturday.

Impact As it has for all in-conference games this season, the SEC's availability report has been updated to include some Texas players, none being Blue. Once considered really thin because of injuries, Texas' running back room has held up quite nicely in 2024, and Blue has been a significant contributor. Across his last nine games, he logged 90 carries for 483 yards and six touchdowns on the ground. Blue also recorded 23 receptions for 201 yards and three TDs.

Suffers injury Saturday Blue suffered an apparent injury in the second half of Saturday's game against Texas A&M, Bob Ballou of CBS Austin reports.

Impact Blue seemed to hurt his arm on a carry, and he hasn't returned to the gridiron after exiting. He's been limited to just four carries for 11 yards. Jerrick Gibson and Isaiah Bond are expected to see more carries behind Quintrevion Wisner in the backfield.

Finds end zone in win Blue accrued 15 rushes for 96 yards and one touchdown and reeled in 1 of 3 targets for five yards during Saturday's 31-14 win over Kentucky.

Impact Blue found the end zone on a 5-yard run during the second quarter. The junior running back will look to build on this performance for Saturday's game against Texas A&M.

Available for Kentucky game Blue (undisclosed) is available for Texas' game Saturday against Kentucky.

Impact After practicing on Monday, Blue was expected to be available Saturday, so it is both unsurprising and welcome news for Texas that the team will have him available against Kentucky. He is in the midst of a career year, racking up highs in multiple categories. The highs include carries (90), all-purpose yards (722) and total touchdowns (eight).
