Qadree Ollison reacts to being drafted by Atlanta Falcons

Former Pitt running back Qadree Ollison was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the fifth round of the NFL Draft on Saturday. He wound up being the only Panther selected in the Draft.

As you might expect, he’s thrilled to be in the NFL and commented on the selection shortly afterward, via the Falcons’ team website.

“I’m excited to be a Falcon, man,” Ollison said. “Thankful to share this moment with my family. I’m just real excited to get to work.”

Ollison lands on what he considers to be a pretty good team. Not just a good one — one that he thinks could win it all.
