Chestnut Hill, MA — The football pipeline from Chestnut Hill to Foxborough is alive and well.
On Monday, 10 staffers from the Patriots attended Boston College's Pro Day, where draft hopefuls such as EDGE Donovan Ezeiruaku and OT Ozzy Trapilo worked out for scouts from all 32 teams. With head coach Bill O'Brien running the football program at Boston College, Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel and New England's top brass were in attendance.

O'Brien and Vrabel's friendship goes back years, with the Patriots former offensive coordinator giving Vrabel his first coaching job in the NFL as the Texans linebackers coach (2014-17).
