Regardless of draft fate, Bryn Renner optimistic about future
Posted May 2, 2014
Bryn Renner isn’t likely to get selected during next week’s NFL draft in New York. But if you know Bryn Renner, you also know his draft fate alone won’t keep him from playing in the NFL. The former UNC quarterback hasn’t caught a decent career break since his days at West Springfield (Va.) High School, but nothing has overwhelmed him - not even a shoulder injury and surgery last season with the Tar Heels.
