MUNCIE, Ind. — In the lead-up to the 2020 NFL Draft, Walter Fletcher felt confident that by the end of that weekend in April he’d at least receive a shot as an undrafted free agent.
Fletcher had earned Division II All-America recognition during the three years he spent at Edinboro prior to transferring to Ball State. The running back had showcased his versatility at the Division I level at BSU, running well in addition to catching the ball out of the backfield and returning kicks. He had even earned a spot in the 2020 SPIRAL Tropical Bowl in Florida.
