The 5-6, 161-pound wide receiver from Texas Tech, was drafted by the Miami Dolphins in the sixth-round of the 2016 NFL Draft. But not many people expected Grant to be drafted. He wasn’t invited to the combine in Indianapolis, instead he had to showcase his skills at Texas Tech’s pro day, where he ran a blazing 4.37 forty. He always believed he could chase his dream.
He didn’t just defy odds on the football field, Grant overcame even more off. Growing up in Dallas, Texas, Grant was shot at as a child. As he got older, trouble continued to follow.
