The mountains in Scottsdale, Ariz. weren’t doing N’Keal Harry any favors during the first round of the NFL draft on Thursday.
Harry, a wide receiver out of Arizona State, was selected 32nd overall by the New England Patriots – but when the time came to speak with Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft, his phone stopped working.
“We couldn’t get them on the line,” Harry said. “One of my agents actually had to reach out.”
Cell service aside, it was a life-changing evening for Harry, who finally did get in touch with the powers that be up in New England.
