Foster Sarell announced today that he will enter the NFL Draft. The fourth-year right tackle follows in the footsteps of teammates Drew Dalman and Simi Fehoko, who announced the same intention the previous two days. I think Sarell's decision is based on a couple things: that his strengths and weaknesses are probably unlikely to significantly change during one more year in college and most of his closest friends on the team have moved on from college.
Statement from Sarell:
“First and foremost, I would like to thank my Heavenly Father for blessing me with so many wonderful people and opportunities in my life. He has been my rock throughout the good and bad, and I can’t wait to see what He has in store for me.
Second, I would like to thank Coach Shaw, Coach Carberry, Coach Tavita and all of the Stanford football staff for all of their support and coaching over the past four years. I would also like to say thank you to all of the Stanford support staff that was instrumental in helping me be successful on and off the field. Lastly, I would like to say thank you to my family who stuck by my side in good and in bad. Supporting me when it seemed all odds were stacked against me; I wouldn’t be here today without you guys.
Finally, I want to say thank you to my teammates who I had the privilege to play with over the past four years. It was an honor, and I wouldn’t have wanted to go to battle with anyone else. With that being said I have decided to enter my name into the 2021 NFL Draft. Thank you to everyone who has helped me along this journey, and I am excited for what God has in store for me at the next level.”
