0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:28.360
<v Speaker 1>been playing football for years, dreaming of going pro, and

0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:31.520
<v Speaker 1>then it happens. Life as you know it changes with

0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:33.519
<v Speaker 1>a phone and I finally got my call. Is just

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 1>the real This is Keegan Michael Key and welcome to

0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Draft It. This podcast series follows eight players as they

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:47.240
<v Speaker 1>enter the NFL Draft. This is their real life as

0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 1>it unfolds in real time, and each player tells his

0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>own story unfiltered. I'm not a first rounder. I'm not

0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:56.480
<v Speaker 1>even the top three rounder. We hear exclusive moments in

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.360
<v Speaker 1>the lives of the athletes. They're personal and professional relationships.

0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I just had some strong you know. Most importantly, we

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>share in the moment when all their hard work and

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:12.800
<v Speaker 1>sacrifice does or does not pay off. This is something

0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>I've been dreaming and round I was supposed to go high.

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get drafted. Not set there for seven round

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 1>as if the stakes weren't high enough and millions of

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:23.320
<v Speaker 1>dollars weren't on the line. These stories are captured during

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:29.119
<v Speaker 1>an unprecedented time COVID quarantine. Nothing like this has ever

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>happened in NFL history. And this year's draft was watched

0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 1>by an astonishing eighty million people. That's more than the

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:42.400
<v Speaker 1>population of Canada, Greece, and Peru combined. Like many of you,

0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:47.319
<v Speaker 1>I grew up loving football. Football. It's generational, it connects us.

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>There's always been a mystique to drafting, but in drafting,

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.280
<v Speaker 1>we go behind the scenes before, during, and after one

0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:58.280
<v Speaker 1>of the biggest days of their lives and we relive

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 1>every detail from the play years perspective. Actually started to

0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>cry like I was crying because I felt like I

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 1>did something wrong. Please join me on the first step

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.080
