Last year, no Nebraska football players were drafted. This year, two Nebraska football players were drafted. After playing for the same program, the Davis brothers will now be going to the National Football League together as well. Carlos is headed to Pittsburgh, while Khalil is off to Tampa Bay.
Khalil was drafted in the sixth round, while Carlos was drafted in the seventh round. I loved watching them play as members of the Nebraska program. They were very versatile in the sense that they were able to both stop the run and rush the passer.
Khalil will be joining several former Nebraska football alums.
