Switzer: ‘Surreal’ on call with Jerry Jones, drafted by Cowboys
Posted May 2, 2017
Former George Washington high school standout and two-time Kennedy Award winner Ryan Switzer was taken in the fourth round of the NFL Draft on Saturday by Dallas. “I saw the Dallas area code (when the phone rang) and to hear Jerry Jones on the other end of the line was just surreal,” Switzer said Saturday on a conference call with Dallas reporters.
