QB Jerod Evans Will Enter 2017 NFL Draft

Virginia Tech quarterback Jerod Evans had a fantastic lone season as a starter for the Hokies, and he believes that one season of FBS football is enough, as he has joined Isaiah Ford and Bucky Hodges in declaring for the 2017 NFL Draft.

The rumors of Evans declaring for the NFL Draft began to circulate after the Belk Bowl victory last Thursday, as all eyes turned towards draft-eligible players following the final game of the season. Ricky LaBlue of Tech Sideline was the first to report that Evans was leaning towards leaving school early.

It is a curious decision to say the least for Evans, who is not among the top quarterback prospects in the 2017 class.
