From ECU to NFL

As two of the most electrifying athletes on the football team say goodbye to their illustrious careers at East Carolina, another journey awaits them. Isaiah “Zay” Jones and James Summers have been chosen by two great NFL organizations to extend their careers.

The Buffalo Bills made the decision on day two of the 2017 NFL Draft to go with the career collegiate receptions leader, Zay Jones. The Arizona Cardinals signed a deal with James Summers on April 29, making him the second offensive player from the 2016 ECU football team to make it to the NFL.

The big question is, what will these players offer their respective teams that have chosen to give them a spot on the roster?
