WILL HOWARD HAD no idea how badly his week was going until the internet told him. "Are you all right?" his girlfriend Skyler Skoglund asked him last month, after Howard opened his phone. He'd flown from the NFL combine to Minnesota to see her -- a quick respite from the frenetic pace of draft season. He honestly thought everything was OK. Then the 6-foot-4, 236-pound quarterback from Ohio State received a curious text message.
It was a screenshot of a social media post from former Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, a projected first-round pick in this year's draft, chiding detractors for hating on Howard.
Confused, Howard texted his agent, Chase Callahan.
