The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Mississippi cornerback Senquez Golsen Saturday night in the second-round of the 2015 NFL Draft and once that happened, it served as a final payoff for a gamble that the young defensive back took several years ago.
Before he ever stepped on the University of Mississippi football field, Golson was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the eighth round of the 2011 Major League Baseball Draft while he was still in high school. Instead of signing a million dollar contract to play baseball, Golson decided that he wanted to play a game he loved even more.
