One of the most touching stories from last year’s NFL Draft was the story of former Alabama running back Josh Jacobs, who emerged as a first round pick of the Raiders in the 2019 NFL Draft.
Here are some of the notable sons selected during the 2020 NFL Draft along with information on their NFL fathers:
-WR-Jalen Reagor (1st round pick of Philadelphia Eagles)-One of the fascinating dynamics of the legacies of NFL fathers during the 2020 NFL Draft was that the majority of the sons play wide receiver.
-WR-Michael Pittman Jr. (2nd round pick of Indianapolis Colts)-It would be impossible for Michael Pittman Jr. to hide from the name of his former NFL running back dad, Michael Pittman.
-CB-Darnay Holmes (4th round pick of New York Giants)-Darnay Holmes will make his living in the NFL on defense unlike his father, Darick, who played five seasons in the NFL as a running back.
-WR-Van Jefferson (2nd round pick of the Los Angeles Rams)–Van Jefferson follows in his dad, Shawn’s, footsteps into the NFL as a wide receiver.
