Long-time UH starting quarterback Clayton Tune was selected 139th overall by the Arizona Cardinals in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Tune is the second Cougar to be drafted this year, following his favorite target, Nathaniel ‘Tank’ Dell, who was selected 69th overall by the Houston Texans. He is also the first UH quarterback to be drafted since Kevin Kolb in 2007.
The Carrollton, Texas native first saw action in his freshman year in 2018 before becoming the Cougars’ full-time starter in the back half of 2019.
In his five years with Houston, Tune finished with nearly 12,000 passing yards, the third most in UH history.
