UNC CB Tony Grimes on Necessary Improvements, Defensive Coaching Staff, NFL Aspirations

Posted Jul 5, 2022
Entering his junior season, Tony Grimes understands what he needs to improve upon to help the Tar Heels defense and boost his NFL Draft stock. "I have to be consistent. Me being consistent helps me in the draft, and that's where I want to go. I've got to play every game like it is my last. I didn't have as great of a season (in 2021) as I expected to."
