Temple Owls NFL Draft Prospects

Temple finished 5-7 (3-5 American) in 2025, a season that turned sour late as the Owls dropped their final four games to fall short of bowl eligibility after sitting at a promising 5-2. Even so, the year counted as progress in the debut of coach K.C. Keeler, who arrived from Sam Houston with a decorated resume that includes an FCS national title.

Now in his second year, Keeler leaned hard on the transfer portal, importing roughly a dozen power-conference players while, notably, not losing a single starter to the portal himself. The defining question is under center, where the Owls must replace Evan Simon.
