One Year Later, UNC Linebacker Peyton Seelmann Is Calling Kenan Stadium Home

Posted Aug 16, 2026
When Peyton Seelmann walked off the field with his Richmond teammates after a 41-6 loss to North Carolina at Kenan Stadium 11 months ago, he didn't speak to Bill Belichick. Nor did he expect he'd ever be back. But four months later, within hours of entering the transfer portal, Seelmann got a phone call from Belichick, who wanted him to visit Chapel Hill. (TarHeel247)
