2021 Cougs set to become 2022 Professionals
Good morning. After a 2021 NFL Draft in which there were not any Washington State Cougars football players selected, the 2022 version saw two Cougs go off the board. Abraham Lucas went to the hometown Seattle Seahawks on Friday, and then the Kansas City Chiefs selected cornerback Jaylen Watson in the 7th Round on Saturday, 243rd overall.
While Watson likely learned the news via a phone call from the Chiefs coaches, the diehards who were still tuned in toward the end of the draft got to see some guy in a t-shirt make the announcement to the masses. The link, including Charles Davis’ reaction, is linked here because the dumb NFL won’t allow embeds.
