Christon Medley wouldn't be too surprised if a one-ton gift showed up in her driveway someday soon.
Her little brother, Leighton Vander Esch, said more than a decade ago that once he achieved his seemingly improbable dream, she would benefit.
"I thought Volkswagen (Beetles) were the coolest thing. He was probably 10, and he said a few times in the years after that he’d buy me one when he made it to the NFL,” Medley said.
On Thursday, Leighton, not so little anymore, likely will see that dream come to fruition. And Christon, along with older sister Shannon and younger sister Morgon, will be in Arlington, Texas, with him to celebrate at the NFL Draft.
