UNC's Landon Turner offers talent, character to lucky NFL franchise

Posted Apr 29, 2016
Landon Turner has trained in San Diego for the last two months and worked out for the New Orleans Saints, but as a self-described non-football fan, he's not picky about his next home. "It really doesn't matter at the end of the day because my whole dream has been since I was 6 years old to play in the NFL,” Turner said. If character counts, some franchise may get a steal.
