For First Time In History, A UDFA Is Returning To College

Here’s a scenario that appears to be a first for the NFL and college football. Arizona State Michael Turk, who declared for the draft in 2020 has been granted a waiver to return to school this fall.

As that tweet points out, Turk didn’t change his mind shortly after declaring. He left school, hired an agent, attended the Combine, where he put up 25 reps on the bar, and sat through draft weekend. He wasn’t selected, nor was he signed as an undrafted free agent, and now has been allowed by the NCAA to return to Arizona State.
