NFLPA Rookie Premiere: AJ McCarron (Photo)
One of the non first round picks present at the 2014 NFLPA Rookie Premiere was Alabama Crimson Tide legend AJ McCarron. The Mobile, Alabama native's Tuscaloosa résumé only includes three BCS championships, two of which occurring with McCarron standing behind center. All told, McCarron's record as a starter was an unfathomable 34-3. He leaves the legendary SEC program as Bama's all-time leader in both passing yards and touchdowns. Simply put, the man is a winner.
Above is an iFolloSports.com original photo of McCarron standing outside the Loews Hollywood Hotel on Friday.
Earlier this month, McCarron was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals, during the fifth round of the 2014 NFL Draft. The 23-year-old will begin life in southern Ohio, as the backup to current Cincy starter Andy Dalton. It will be very interesting to see if McCarron will be given the opportunity to display his winning brand of football, with the Bengals, or perhaps at a future NFL destination.
