The overwhelming majority of college football players will go pro in something other than sports. Washington Huskies linebacker Drew Fowler is no exception to statistic. But Fowler, a fifth-year senior, decided to have a little fun with the fact that his football career is over.
Rather than just ride off into the sunset, Fowler went viral on Friday when he took to social media to declare not for the NFL Draft, but for the workforce instead.

“When I first committed here in 2019, I talked about taking ‘the road less traveled.’ Boy, did I have any idea what that would truly mean,” he wrote. “Playing through 4 head coaches, 3 athletic directors, 4 coordinators, and a global pandemic, my experience at UW has been nothing short of special.
“With that being said, I’m officially declaring for the job market,” Fowler added, bringing levity to the situation.
“In other words, I need a job. If you or anybody you know has an employment opportunity, I am your guy. Gritty, hardworking, sneaky athletic, locker room guy, will bring my lunch pail to work. My LinkedIn is updated, and I am open to work.”
Fowler was far from a star for the Huskies. He appeared in 49 games over five seasons and notched just 42 tackles. But it’s easy to see why he’s the type of guy that coaches love to have in their locker room.
According to his profile on the Washington athletics site, Fowler is a three-time Pac-12 Academic Honor Roll member and a 2024 member of the Academic All-Big Ten team. However, the profile did not state what he majored in. For his sake, hopefully it’s something like marketing or social media, because we’ve already seen his skills on full display.
Normally, if a college football player steals headlines off the field, it’s bad news. But not this time around. Fowler may not be a star athlete, but it’s clear he’s a budding social media star.
