Christian DiLauro is trying to reach the NFL. And the 23-year-old former Illinois offensive lineman is giving The News-Gazette a weekly look into his journey. Here’s his 14th entry (catch the whole series at IlliniHQ.com):
It was an incredible experience to be so close to home and a little unbelievable to believe that a dream of playing in the NFL is so close to being able to be accomplished.My visit to Cleveland last week consisted of a tour of the Browns' facilities while also meeting with some of the staff there. I was able to sit down with the offensive line coach and assistant offensive line coach, as well, and talk about football to just give them an idea of who I am as a person on and off the field.
