I remember standing outside NRG stadium on Day Two of the NFL Draft. A black SUV limo pulled up about 50’ away from me and a young man climbed out of the back. He was tall, lanky, had long hair and some of the skinniest lower legs I’ve ever seen on a pro athlete.
It only took a second for me to realize I was seeing newest Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Will Fuller V, fresh off a jet and ready to meet the organization who just drafted him.
He had some injury concerns, but my mind immediately connected Fuller to my all-time favorite NFL receiver, fellow Notre Dame Fighting Irishman, Tim Brown.
