Former UNC DB Brian Walker Finds Football Home in Winnipeg

Posted Aug 14, 2017
Brian Walker, a UNC transfer to Division II Fayetteville State, brings a physical presence to the Bombers secondary, flashing a ferocity in finishing tackles. And at just 21 and shining in his first pro experience, he’s the kind of talent that might have slipped through the NFL cracks, but soon get a look. Walker, for the record, wants nothing to do with that talk. (Winnipeg Blue Bombers)
