While many former Northwestern football players were unlikely to hear their names called until the sixth or seventh rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft, an ex-Wildcat commit discovered his next destination during Saturday's fourth round.
With the No. 124 overall pick, the Green Bay Packers selected Texas edge rusher Barryn Sorrell. The defender was actually in the green room for the draft, so Sorrell was able to experience walking out onto the stage and hugging NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
Goodell traditionally does not announce draft picks beyond the first round, but with Sorrell on site, the commissioner made sure he got to experience his NFL Draft moment.
