Pitt WR Tyler Boyd to declare for NFL Draft

Posted Jan 1, 2016
For an All About Me school project poster, a 9-year-old Tyler Boyd drew a picture of himself playing football in the NFL. It was a big dream for a kid from Clairton, the tiny steel town that Boyd would put on the map. With record-setting high school and college football careers at Clairton and Pitt, Boyd became a hometown star. On New Year's Day, he thanked Pittsburgh with a heartfelt poem that traced his trajectory from boy playing for the Little Bears to native son starring for the Panthers. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
