Texas Longhorns QB Quinn Ewers takes playful shot at Arch Manning in new Dr Pepper commercial

Last week, Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers was announced to star in this season's 'Fansville' series of commercials for Dr Pepper.

‘Fansville’ is a satirical episodic drama from Plano, TX-based soda company set in a fictional college town. The popular series of commercials is in its seventh season. The Texas QB will play Deputy Quinn Ewers alongside series regular Oklahoma Sooners legend Brian Bosworth, who plays the town’s Sheriff.

As part of the announcement, Dr Pepper released the first two episodes of the series. In episode one, Ewers told the audience "I'm a new character."

Now, the third installment has been released and it heavily features Ewers. In it, Sheiff Bosworth tells Deputy Ewers to call for backup. Ewers insists multiple times he doesn't need backup, "... even if he has great hair and famous relatives."
