Four key UNC football players, including quarterback Drake Maye, announced their intention to forgo the matchup against the Mountaineers to begin preparing for the NFL Draft. The other three are wide receiver Tez Walker, center Corey Gaynor and linebacker Cedric Gray, the team’s top tackler. Maye could come off the board within the first five picks.
