In a thrilling twist for Texas football fans, DJ Campbell, one of the Longhorns’ most formidable offensive linemen, has announced he’ll return for the 2025 season. This major decision comes at a crucial time for Texas, as several key players have declared for the NFL Draft. But with Campbell’s return, the Longhorns now have a cornerstone player to help protect star QB Arch Manning and lead the charge for a long-awaited title run.
Since his debut, Campbell has quickly risen through the ranks, becoming a key fixture on the Texas offensive line. After a solid freshman year and two consecutive seasons as a starter, he’s set to dominate as right guard once again. Now entering his fourth season, Campbell is primed to step into a leadership role, as the only returning starter after multiple offensive linemen opted for the draft.
Campbell’s return means the Longhorns’ offensive line will be anchored by his talent and experience, surrounded by rising stars like Cole Hutson and Trevor Goosby, who are expected to play major roles next year. This trio gives Texas a solid foundation to build on as they look to fill gaps and make a serious push for a championship.
With his sights set on continuous growth, Campbell could very well be preparing for a future in the NFL by this time next year, but for now, Texas fans can breathe easy knowing their offensive line will remain in good hands. The countdown to 2025 starts now, and the Longhorns are gearing up to make it unforgettable.
