INDIANAPOLIS: University of Akron wide receiver Jerome Lane Jr. already has a plan for his touchdown celebrations in the NFL.
“I have to hang on the goal post,” Lane joked Friday during the NFL Scouting Combine at the Indiana Convention Center. “That’s just a family [tradition].”
Would the Akron native and Firestone High School graduate accept the inevitable fine from the NFL?
“Give me a couple years to become a veteran where I have that kind of clout to do that,” Lane quipped. “But I have to dunk on the goal post. I have to.”
