 “I would like to thank Coach Sark and Coach Flood for affording me the privilege of returning for the 2024 season,” Majors wrote. “Playing for UT is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I want to thank my family, teammates, coaches, friends, and our loyal fanbase for their support during this process. I look forward to continuing my education, improving my leadership on and off the field, and being a big part of the Texas Longhorn community in 2024.”

Majors, a member of Texas' 2020 recruiting class, has gone from three-star prospect to starting center in the SEC next season. He's started 39 straight games for Texas dating back to the start of the 2021 season.

Majors had anchored an offensive line that's helped pave the way for some talented NFL running backs over the last few seasons, including Bijan Robinson, Roschon Johnson and the soon-to-be-drafted Jonathon Brooks.

He'll now look to lead another strong rushing attack next season.
