Football star Quinton Coples holds 6th annual football camp

Posted Jul 9, 2017
Football season is still a few months away, but Quinton Coples' skills camp is helping kids get better now. Before being drafted 16th overall in the 2012 NFL Draft, Coples was just a kid from Kinston striving for greatness. When he was growing up, there were no NFL pros coming to Kinston to coach the kids.
