He's improved every day."
Before the injury, Ewers was playing at a Heisman-caliber level, completing 73.4 percent of his passes for 691 yards and eight touchdowns with two interceptions over nine quarters of football."With some of the games that we have coming up down the road, is gonna be in New York for the Heisman, whether he wins it or not, but he has the ability to do that," Sarkisian said.
