Arizona State University quarterback Sam Leavitt declared that he would be stepping away from football for the time being, sending shockwaves through the Sun Devils’ fanbase. Despite the unexpected move, Leavitt assured fans that this was not the end of his college career and promised to return in the future.
Leavitt, a freshman who had shown impressive potential in his early time with Arizona State, made the announcement through a heartfelt video posted on social media. In his message, he expressed deep gratitude for the support he had received from the Sun Devils community. “To all the fans, my teammates, and the coaching staff, I want to say thank you for everything. This decision has been incredibly tough, but after a lot of reflection, I feel it’s time for me to step away for a while,” Leavitt said, his voice filled with emotion.
The 19-year-old quarterback had quickly become a fan favorite after his strong performances in his debut season, earning praise for his poise, athleticism, and leadership on the field. He played a key role in Arizona State’s offense, and many were excited to see how he would develop in the years to come.
Leavitt’s announcement comes amid a challenging period for the Sun Devils, who have faced instability with coaching changes and underperformance in recent seasons. Leavitt, however, assured fans that his decision was unrelated to any issues with the program, and he remained confident in the future of Arizona State football. “I believe in the direction this team is headed. I have no doubt that we will achieve great things in the future, and I want to be part of that. But for now, I need to take some time for myself,” he explained.
While his departure has raised questions about the Sun Devils’ quarterback situation, Leavitt’s promise to return offers hope for fans. “This isn’t goodbye forever. I’ll be back. I’m determined to come back stronger and ready to contribute to this team in ways you’ve never seen before,” he declared.
The news has left both fans and analysts wondering what’s next for the talented young quarterback, who had already shown flashes of greatness. Arizona State now faces a crucial period in determining how to adjust to Leavitt’s absence. However, his pledge to return has sparked optimism and anticipation for what the future holds for both Leavitt and the Sun Devils football program.
