Five Tar Heels Sign NFL Contracts Posted May 1, 2016 Shortly after NFL Draft, UNC announced that Landon Turner had agreed to a contract with the New Orleans Saints; a situation that is likely better than being selected late in the draft because the destination becomes the player’s choice rather than being chosen by a team that may not be a good fit. Turner was not the only Tar Heel that agreed to a contract. (Chapelboro.com)
