Player Engagement Welcomes the 2015 Draft Class and Their Families to the NFL

As some of the top picks in the 2015 NFL Draft prepared to walk across the stage in Chicago, NFL Player Engagement hosted their families for an intimate brunch to welcome them into the NFL family and inform them of the many support resources available to players.

Being selected by an NFL team is a huge accomplishment, and the sense of pride and excitement that the prospects' families had in the players was evident throughout the entire week.
