Announcing future plans removed pressure for Engram

Ole Miss tight end Evan Engram announced before the Rebels broke for Christmas that he would return for his senior season.

Engram and defensive end Fadol Brown were among the five for whom the school requested draft grades from the NFL.

Only five players from a given school can request those grades. Engram and suspended defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche are the only two Ole Miss players to give a definitive word on their futures so far though it’s widely expected that wide receiver Laquon Treadwell and offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil will also declare.

Brown’s future is less clear.
