The news kept rolling in quite fastest for former members of the Texas Longhorns football program on April 27, the final day of the 2019 NFL Draft. This was a very disappointing draft class through and through for the Longhorns with only two players selected during the three days for the event in Nashville, TN. One of the first former Longhorns that was picked up among the undrafted free agents last weekend was the defensive tackle Chris Nelson who signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
It took less than two hours after the end of the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft for the Steelers to sign Chris Nelson as an undrafted free agent.
