Believe it or not, being selected No. 256 in the NFL Draft has its perks, and that’s what Arizona Cardinals selection Gerald Christian has learned this week.
The former Louisville tight end has had a week-long vacation for being “Mr. Irrelevant” in the NFL Draft. The tradition of “Mr. Irrelevant Week” continued with Christian.
His week in California started with what a lot of celebrities in California have to endure: the paparazzi.
