Fackrell likely to be first Aggie selected in this year's NFL Draft

Utah State senior linebacker Kyler Fackrell returns a fumble during the Aggies' 33-18 Homecoming win against Colorado State on Oct. 3 on Merlin Olsen Field at Maverik Stadium in Logan, Utah.

“I just think that versatility and being able to play in space, as well play on the edge and rush, is something that is beneficial in my game. So, that’s just something that I wanted to emphasize.”

LOGAN — Friday might just be the day Kyler Fackrell has been waiting for.

Most NFL Draft projections have the former Utah State linebacker slated to be selected in either the second or third round, which means Fackrell can relax during the first round Thursday night before starting to be anxious on Friday when the next two rounds are held at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago.
