NFL Draft Profile: Troy Pride Jr.

ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. –– Fighting Irish cornerback Troy Pride Jr. was a crucial part of the Notre Dame defense. He is another NFL draft hopeful, looking to make a difference at the next level. 

Executive Director of the Senior Bowl Jim Nagy said teams around the league are quite familiar with who Pride is on and off the field. 

"I think there are some corners in this [draft] class. Talking to friends around the league they don’t feel like they know this corner class very well, but they feel like they know Troy Pride and that always helps," Nagy said.

Round one of the NFL draft begins Thursday at 8 p.m. EST.
