It was a phone call UNC tight end will never forget. "I remember dropping to my knees and my phone hitting the ground," Walston said, remembering what happened when he learned his friend, Riley Estes, had died by suicide in February. Estes was a 19-year-old student at UNC-Wilmington. Garrett and Riley had a brotherly relationship. (WTVD)
