That’s right: time marches on, and every year these days, we’re getting very the offspring of famous NFL players playing in the league.
The 2024 NFL Draft is no different, and there are A LOT of what I’m calling Draft Dads in this group, meaning we could see players we enjoyed watching giving their sons big hugs on their way to hearing their names called.
Marvin Harrison Jr. is the biggest name of the group, with the Ohio State receiver perhaps going in the top-five of the first round, so we’ll list the son of the former Indianapolis Colts wideout with the others:
