D’Onta Foreman earned himself a lot of money in the NFL Draft. Foreman performed at a very high level at Texas Pro Day on Tuesday, wowing scouts with his speed, physique, and catching ability.

Foreman said he expected to have a rebound performance after not being allowed to compete at the NFL Combine.

Foreman did not even know that he had a stress fracture in his left foot until doctors examined him at the Combine. Then, he was not allowed to participate in drills, which put him behind the other top RBs in the 2017 NFL Draft.

No worries, as Foreman earned himself Top 50 status in the Draft. It’s just a matter of matching up with the right team that wants to draft him in the Second Round.
