Jim Kelly thinks highly of his nephew Chad Kelly.
Jim Kelly, the NFL Hall of Fame quarterback, seemed to write Saturday on Instagram that any NFL executive doubting Chad Kelly, the former Ole Miss quarterback, are making a mistake.
“Just an FYI for all NFL executives. Just because of a couple set backs , never count a Kelly out,” Jim Kelly wrote. “Ask any coach that coached him, his work ethic is unmatched. He will be back stronger than ever. Bet on it.”
In the video that accompanied Jim Kelly’s message in his Instagram post, Chad Kelly completes a perfect 19 of 19 passes from 10 yards out and 10 of 10 from 15 yards while on ESPN’s “Sports Science”
Chad Kelly reportedly has not been viewed highly by many NFL front offices and most mock drafts project him as a late-round pick at best who could go undrafted.
