A player who isn't a high-round draft pick has to work a little harder to impress coaches and stick on an NFL team. Those players might not be without talent, of course, but they often become fan favorites because they have to prove themselves, just as most of us do. The Seattle Seahawks have a few of these.
One, of course, is Jake Bobo. He was an undrafted free agent out of UCLA in 2023, but he had the work ethic to make his teammates praise him in training camp. He wasn't fast, but he knew how to use his body to catch contested passes.
