My Take
Chad Kelly's career is the kind of underdog arc I can't help rooting for. Drafted dead last in 2017, crowned 'Mr. Irrelevant,' he could have faded quietly; instead he kept clawing forward, eventually finding success in Canadian football. Coming from Buffalo with the weight of a famous football surname, he chose to write his own story rather than coast on a name. I'm drawn to athletes who refuse to accept the label others hand them. There's real romance in the man taken with the final pick who keeps proving he belongs, and Kelly embodies that stubborn, admirable persistence.
