FAU quarterback Jason Driskel is retiring from football, he announced Thursday on Twitter.
“After a lot of thinking, talking with my friends and family, and prayer, I have made the decision to end my college football career,” Driskel wrote. “It was always a dream of mine to play quarterback at the FBS level and I’m proud of accomplishing that goal.It has never been a dream of mine, however, to play football beyond college.”
Driskel took over as the starter after the Owls went 1–2 to start the season and reeled off 10 straight wins after losing to Buffalo in his first start.
