Bailey Zappe never thought the New England Patriots would draft him in the fourth-round of the 2022 NFL draft just like he never thought he’d be starting under center in his first year.
The moral of this story is that life can take unexpectedly positive turns when you work hard and put yourself in a position to capitalize on opportunities. Such has been the case for Zappe, who has led a flailing Patriots team back to life with two straight wins.
NFL Films posted an emotional video on social media capturing the moment Zappe learned he was being drafted by the Patriots.
