Jacob Eason may have been disappointed by falling to the fourth round of the 2020 NFL draft, but that didn't dampen his competitive spirt.
Far from it, actually.
"As soon as this virus calms down, I'm gonna go in there and compete my nuts off," Eason said in a teleconference with reporters Saturday after the Indianapolis Colts took him with the No. 122 overall selection.
Considered a potential second-round pick, Eason watched on as team after team passed him by in favor of other positions.
