A longer than originally anticipated wait for the former star senior Texas football quarterback Sam Ehlinger to hear his name called in the 2021 NFL Draft finally ended on the late afternoon of May 1. It did take until later in the day on May 1 for the hometown product Ehlinger to hear his name called in this draft.
The team that ended the wait for Ehlinger to hear his name called in the weekend festivities of this year’s draft was the Indianapolis Colts out of the AFC South.
