Cyril Grayson Sprints Into the Unknown

The MMQB spent 24 hours with quarterback prospect Patrick Mahomes as he prepares for his pro day.

On Monday afternoon, a single line of text came across the waiver wire on an otherwise uneventful NFL offseason day. The Seahawks signed a 23-year-old wide receiver from LSU. The news went uncelebrated save in a small pocket of Louisiana where folks did not see this coming, and by the man who made it happen through persistence and blind faith.

Behold, a life-changing 72 hours for Cyril Grayson.

The first thing to know about Grayson is that he never actually played receiver at LSU or any other college.
