Defensive end Montez Sweat has decided that he will no longer attend the 2019 NFL draft and will instead be watching on television with his family.

Per ESPN.com's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen, Sweat announced he will watch Thursday's event at his grandparents' house.

"My devoted grandparents and a host of other family members helped me to get to this point in my life and I wanted to celebrate this special day with my family so we all chose to do so where it all started for me, Stone Mountain, Georgia," he said.
