Hudson Card (born July 29, 2001) is an American football quarterback for the Purdue Boilermakers. He was a highly touted four-star prospect from Lake Travis High School in Austin, Texas. He played in the 2020 Under Armour All-America Game.
Card saw limited action at Texas as a true freshman. During the lead-up to the 2021 season, he was named the starting quarterback, but lost the role to Casey Thompson after just two games. During the 2022 season, he started three games in place of an injured Quinn Ewers. He transferred to Purdue for his redshirt junior season.
Early years
Card attended Lake Travis High School in Austin, Texas. As a sophomore, he earned the varsity backup quarterback position, but due to his athleticism, the coaching staff started him at wide receiver.[1] As a receiver, he hauled in 69 receptions for 1,137 yards and 13 touchdowns. He also threw for 597 yards as the reserve quarterback.[1] Despite not playing as a quarterback for most of the season, he earned several scholarship offers, committing to the Texas Longhorns on May 25, 2018.[2] As a senior, he was selected to the 2020 Under Armour All-American Game.[3]
College career
Texas
In 2020, as a true freshman, Card played in two games as a backup to Sam Ehlinger, and ended up taking a redshirt. In 2021, as a redshirt freshman, he competed with Casey Thompson for the starting job.[4][5] He won the competition and was named the starter for the opening game. In Card's first start, he went 14-for-21 on pass attempts, threw for 224 yards, 2 touchdowns, and no interceptions in the 38-18 win over Louisiana-Lafayette. However, Card lost the starting job after a poor performance in a 40-21 blowout loss versus Arkansas.[6][7] On November 29, 2022, Card announced he was entering the transfer portal.[8]
Purdue
Card announced via Twitter he committed to Purdue on December 26, 2022.[9]
