Long Shot: The Kyle Dugger Story

Growing up, Kyle Dugger used to watch football for hours. He grew up on gridiron gladiators like Adrian Peterson, Troy Polamalu, Ed Reed and Eric Berry. It was that passion for the game he loved that pushed Dugger to become the highest-drafted Division II prospect in the NFL Draft in two decades. Not only that, but Dugger was New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick’s first draft pick of the post-Tom Brady era.

This podcast explores how Dugger went from an undersized freshman running back just trying to make his high school varsity roster to a dominant safety winning the Cliff Harris Award and shining star at the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine.

Locked On Presents: Long Shot – The Kyle Dugger Story also gives you an inside look at the NFL draft process from the perspective of the ultimate underdog who beat the system.
