Ethan Albright finds himself on the opposite side of his family's high school and college loyalties
Posted Oct 16, 2015
Ethan Albright is football royalty at Grimsley. He was a standout there in the late 1980s before earning a scholarship to Carolina, where he would become a first-team All-ACC tackle. And then Albright would play for 16 years in the NFL, gaining notoriety as a long snapper on special teams, probably the greatest long snapper in NFL history. He’s on the ballot this year for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
