If you are an Ohio State fan, there’s no doubt you have at least a little backstory on quarterback C.J. Stroud. You know he’s from Southern California and set the college football world on fire for two seasons in a Buckeye uniform.
Now, he’s looking to get selected in the upcoming NFL draft, and there’s at least a modest chance that he goes off the board as the No. 1 overall with the Carolina Panthers the potential suitor.
But his rise to a football star goes much deeper than that and the NFL’s Twitter page shared a video that’s a little over two minutes that talks about how he got into football, who his inspiration is, and what he expects on draft day. It’s worth a little bit of your time we’d say.
Click on the below video from the NFL Twitter page and get to know Stroud just a little bit more.
