When Florida Atlantic’s season ended in November, former Owls cornerback Tevin Homer appeared to be a long shot to continue his playing career.
Homer, a Park Vista graduate and walk-on transfer from Arkansas Baptist, played in just 11 games at FAU. He recorded only three tackles. He never started, and was primarily a special teams player. But Homer impressed during the offseason, which culminated in a free-agent contract with the Washington Redskins.
After going undrafted, Homer received an invite to Washington’s rookie minicamp in May and signed with the club on May 15.
