The year is 1989. With the third overall pick of the NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions select Heisman Trophy winner from Oklahoma State, the now legendary Barry Sanders.
On Thursday morning, Sanders tweeted at ESPN and Dan Patrick about their interview on 1989 NFL Draft Day.
Hey @dpshow & @espn - remember chasing me around Wichita all day in 1989. I probably owe you an apology for that one buddy! @NFLDraft day - Wishing all the candidates and their families the best of luck today!
