‘If cornerback doesn’t prove to be top-heavy in this draft, it certainly looks to be fairly deep.

So, knowing that those kids have lifelong struggles and…very big things to overcome, just to go in and be a little bit of a ray of sunlight… [is great]. Just to get their mind off what they’re going through for the 15-20 minutes that we could have with each kid [was my goal]. I’m sure I got more out of it than they did too.”’
