Last weekend, 256 athletes made the next step in their football careers at the 2018 NFL Draft in Arlington, Texas. The Players’ Tribune sat down with several players taking their game to the next level to discuss their biggest moments on the field in college, their football idols, and who they’re most excited to play against in the NFL.
I’m always going to approach this game like a player with no scholarship offers. I’m going to grind the same way I did when I was a walk-on.
It doesn’t feel right to call this a goodbye because I was a Sooner long before I enrolled at OU, and I’ll be a Sooner long after my playing days are over.
Georgia is all about good people supporting one another and having each other’s backs. It really is the people that make UGA such a special place.
