The raw emotion you see from the NFL Draft is second to none. Watching players, family and friends get emotional when a dream comes true is always fun.
One video, captured by Penn State head coach James Franklin, shows exactly how important and special these moments can be for everyone involved.
Franklin’s daughter Addy was overwhelmed and overjoyed when she heard Nick Scott’s name announced at the 2019 NFL Draft, one of six Nittany Lions to be selected. But she was especially close to Scott, who Franklin says was a big brother and role model to his daughter.
The video shared by Franklin was one of the most heartwarming of the NFL Draft:
