Welcome to 2CarPros.

The first thing we need to check is to make sure the shift linkage cable is still attached and hasn't come apart. Does the shifter still feel the same? Have a helper watch on the transmission to see if there is movement when you change gears.

If there is nothing and the linkage is good, something with the clutch has jammed in the release position, the input shaft is broken, or even one of the CV joints on the axle has broken. Let me know if there are any strange sounds when you release the clutch and let me know if the clutch pedal still feels the same.

Take care,
Joe
