WATCH: Thomas Fletcher reacts with excitement after the Panthers drafted him

Thomas Fletcher represents all of us.

As a native of Georgetown, Texas, he served the University of Alabama football well for four years as a long snapper.

Fletcher was the unsung model of perfection. He never botched a snap and he allowed names such as JK Scott, Mike Bernier, Ty Perine, Charlie Scott, and Will Reichard to have success. Fletcher arrived in the Crimson Tide’s top-ranked signing class in 2017.

He helped the program capture two national champions, but he never dreamed he would hear his name called at the NFL Draft.

As it got deeper into the sixth round, Fletcher started thinking about being an undrafted free agent.
