Steelers undrafted free agent guard Chris Owens aspires to be an NFL general manager after his playing career concludes, he told Nick Kelly of the Tuscaloosa News. Owens spent six years at Alabama, moving all around the offensive line, although he projects as an interior offensive lineman at the NFL level. While at Alabama, he was a semi-finalist for the 2021 William V. Campbell trophy-also known as the academic Heisman-along with fellow UDFA offensive lineman Jake Dixon, among others.
Owens got his love of team-building from Madden (because, honestly, who didn’t). “There would be years where I wouldn’t even play the season,” Owens said.
