Shaquem Griffin Defies All Odds

Shaquem Griffin is now a future NFL linebacker prospect for all 32 franchises of the National Football League.

During the annual event of the NFL Combine, Shaquem Griffin proved himself to any and all doubters, when he ran a whopping 4.38 second 40-yard-dash, which happened to be the fastest linebacker run in years. 20 reps of 225 pounds of bench presses with prosthetic arm, and an 117 in the broad jump.

Shaquem Griffin had a congenital condition, which led to the amputation of his left hand at the age of four. However, Griffin would not let being without a left hand hold him back from his football dream. He was a redshirt senior for the UCF Knights, who went undefeated in their 2017 college football season with his help.

Shaquem Griffin stole the hearts of Americans with his inspirational workout at the NFL Combine. Many football players like San Francisco 49ers Cornerback Richard Sherman believes Griffin should be drafted in the first two days, but professional draft scouts believe Griffin will be selected Day Three of the NFL Draft.
