BYU Center James Empey Declares For NFL Draft
BYU starting center James Empey announced that he will declare for the 2022 NFL Draft after 5 years at BYU. He made the announcement on his Twitter.
Empey was a 4-year starter at BYU and rock in the middle of BYU’s offensive line. After redshirting in 2017, he started all 26 games BYU played in 2018-2019, and played in 8 and 7 games, respectively, the next two seasons after struggling with injuries.
Empey committed to Utah as part of the 2015 recruiting class, but came to BYU after his mission to play under his Dad Mike who was BYU’s OL coach in 2016-2017.
