After the New York Giants traded down in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft from 11 to 20 to select Florida wide receiver Kadarius Toney, Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer admitted that he was heart broken. The former college coach wanted to draft the play making receiver at 25.
“I’ve gotten to know him over the last couple weeks and obviously my connection with [Gators] coach [Dan] Mullen and those guys,” Meyer told ESPN. “You watch [Toney] play, he’s a human highlight reel.”
It looks like the Green Bay Packers also wanted to draft Toney by using the 29th overall pick.
