Illinois Football Law Firm Speaks at NFL Combine

Illinois Football Law Firm Speaks at NFL Combine

Illinois football projects to have quite an involved day for the 2024 NFL Draft. Last year, Devon Witherspoon, Sydney Brown, Chase Brown, and Quan Martin all kept the Illinois football fans tuning into the 2023 NFL Draft. Afterward, all four players and Tommy Devito had some great moments throughout their rookie seasons. This year, the Illinois Football bunch is led by the Law firm. Jer’Zhan Newton and Keith Randolph headline the group of Illinois Football players trying to establish their NFL careers. Additionally, Isaiah Adams, Isaiah Williams, and Julian Pearl will all do their best to impress prior to this year’s draft.

Newton and Randolph had interviews from Lucas Oil Stadium about their experiences.

Jer’Zhan Newton

Newton is projected to go in the first round of practically every NFL mock draft. He was quite limited after the football season ended due to a foot injury, however, Newton is insisting his health is not an issue. The Florida native was an absolute star during this year’s Illinois Football season. He has such a unique combination of speed and strength. Newton sits in the middle of most mock drafts. Per cbssports.com, the Buffalo Bills will use the 28th pick on Newton. Additionally, they ranked Newton as the 2nd highest defensive tackle prospect and 20th overall prospect.

Keith Randolph Jr.

Keith Randolph brought his natural charisma to the podium at Lucas Oil Stadium. The Belleville native is beloved wherever he goes and has an infectious joy about him. Per NFLmockdraftdatabase.com, Randolph will likely be selected somewhere in the fifth round. Keith appears in the sixth round in most mock drafts. This lines up as Randolph has similar attributes to Chase Brown. Obviously, they play different positions, but the two just do a lot of things very well on the football field. In contrast to most draft prospects, who specialize in speed or power.

Wherever Randolph goes, Illinois fans will be watching that team very closely.
