The 2021 NFL Draft is scheduled to begin on April 29 in Ohio, Cleveland. As usual, this year’s event will also be a 3-day affair. There are a host of young quarterback prospects up for grabs this summer. Brigham Young’s Zach Wilson is one of them.
The BYU Cougars starlet ended the 2020 NCAA season with 3,692 passing yards and 33 passing TDs against just 3 interceptions. At one point last year, Wilson was leading the race to win the Heisman Trophy but a slight slump in form meant that he didn’t. However, he is expected to garner massive attention at the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft.
Wilson impressed at BYU’s Pro Day last month but in this article, we will talk about another aspect of his life.
