The Texas A&M Aggies’ top pass rusher declared for the NFL draft earlier this week. Texas A&M Aggies star defensive tackle Nic Scourton filed for the 2025 NFL Draft on Monday but did not confirm whether he will play in the team’s bowl game.
He seems to have made his decision. According to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz, Scourton is withdrawing from the Las Vegas Bowl against the USC Trojans, bringing his stint at College Station to an end.
Last winter, Scourton transferred from Purdue and quickly established himself as one of the Aggies’ most impactful defenders. In 12 games this season, the junior led the team with 37 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, and five sacks. He was named first-team All-SEC earlier this week, making him the only Aggie to do so. Scourton is one of several A&M
players who will not play in Sin City, whether due to the draft, transfer portal, or other reasons. For an Aggies team aiming to finish the season on a bright note after a difficult November, those losses will be difficult to overcome.
At Thursday’s College Football Awards Show, the Bryan, Texas native won up another individual honor when he was recognized to the Walter Camp All-American Second Team.
