A two-time First-Team Academic All-Big 12 honoree, Downing spent two seasons with the Horned Frogs after beginning his collegiate career with Georgia. The 6-foot, 205-pounder from Alpharetta, Georgia completed 20-of-34 passes for 194 yards and one touchdown with one interception during his time with TCU. Downing appeared in four games during the 2020 season, but was buried behind Max Duggan and Chandler Morris on the depth chart.
