According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, dual sport athlete and two-time track All-American Cole Beck will attend the Atlanta Falcons rookie minicamp on a tryout basis. Beck was also a core special-teamer for the Hokies.
Beck's 2023 season was cut short due to a season-ending injury, but he still helped out on special teams, a role that he will probably keep in his pursuit to become an NFL player.
Beck is arguably one of the fastest players in this draft and could become a problem for players to catch in open space. However, if he doesn't stick on an NFL roster, you can probably find him qualifying at your nearest Olympic qualifier
They movin out here! (+5.5) 💨💨💨
