‘Sign Me Up Right Now’: Chris Hubbard Recalls Moment Mike Tomlin Called Him After Going Undrafted

Following a strong career as a steady, dependable offensive lineman for the UAB Blazers across four seasons, which saw him play in more than 30 games and start more than 20, Chris Hubbard expected to hear his name called in the 2013 NFL Draft.

In fact, based on some pre-draft visits and conversations, he expected to land with the Seattle Seahawks in the later rounds.

But, ultimately that didn’t happen as Hubbard landed with the Pittsburgh Steelers as an undrafted free agent, and continues to stick around in the NFL today as a member of the San Francisco 49ers.
