Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell will have a lot on his plate as a rookie, but the Clemson standout is used to playing under the bright lights. Not everyone agrees with the team’s decision to draft Terrell at pick No. 16. Ultimately, he will be judged by how he performs on the field, not by Mel Kiper’s draft-day evaluation.
Speaking with Atlanta via video chat, Terrell discussed his excitement in joining his hometown team. Watch below as the Falcons’ rookie says he’s ready to get to work in Atlanta:
