In the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings selected Illinois offensive tackle Vederian Lowe. Lowe, who started a record 52 games for the Fighting Illini, has a backstory that is quite different from a lot of NFL draft picks, and he shared some of that story with Jim Rome earlier this week.
Lowe is already a married father of two, and also took guardianship of his 15-year-old brother when their mother unexpectedly passed away three years ago. In this clip from the interview, he talks specifically about that adoption.
