It’s the dream of every player in college to hear your name called at your sport’s draft, and that dream has come true for Tez Walker. He heard his name called by the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
Walker’s road to the draft was a rocky one. He was first meant to go to East Tennessee State in 2019 but suffered an ACL tear mere months before arriving on campus. He took the year to heal, and looked to restart football closer to his Charlotte home at North Carolina Central in 2020.
