Will Shipley after being drafted in fourth round by Eagles

Transcript

00:00 I think throughout the whole process, I was pretty much being told that I was

00:04 between a third and fifth rounder.

00:06 So I was right there in the fourth round kind of expected,

00:08 just depending on how the running backs got off the board.

00:11 But still just waiting, waiting around and seeing all the guys go before you,

00:16 you just you wanna get your name called and I was very eager.

00:19 And when the Eagles called or when the call came through from Philadelphia,

00:25 I could not have been more ecstatic.

00:27 My old brother actually plays lacrosse up at UPenn in Philadelphia.

00:33 So I'm up there all the time catching as many of his games as I can and

00:38 I've gained a love for the city of Philly.

00:40 So it could not be a better spot for my family and I.

00:43 And during the pre-draft process, had great meetings with Coach Singleton

00:50 at the combine and was able to do a private workout with him at Clemson.

00:54 In which we were able to go over some of my film, do some on the field work and

00:59 get to know each other a little better than just the quick 15 minute

01:03 at the combine.

01:05 So yeah, I mean, I'm so blessed.

01:06 I'm ready to get to work and could not be more proud to be a Philadelphia Eagle.
