Early life

College career
As a freshman in 2023, Flores did not play in any games and took a redshirt.[2] In 2024, he did not appear in any games due a season-ending lower leg injury.[3] Heading into the 2025 season, Flores competed with TCU transfer Hauss Hejny for the Cowboys starting quarterback job.[4][5] Heading into week one, Flores lost the starting job, but an injury to Hejny forced him into the game, where he completed 13 of his 20 passes for 136 yards in a victory versus UT Martin.[6] After the game, it was announced that Hejny would be out for an extended period of time, giving Flores the starting job.[7]
