The great story that is Shaquem Griffin came to a culmination on Saturday when the Seattle Seahawks made him a fifth-round draft pick.
A draft crush around the scouting community for his elite-level on-field play, Griffin also acts as an inspiration to others dealing with handicaps. After all, he’s set to perform on football’s grandest stage with one arm.
Not only are Seahawks fans extremely excited about Griffin’s ascension to the NFL, it seems football fans the world over are also darn excited. In fact, Griffin boasts the fifth best-selling rookie jersey of the 2018 NFL Draft class.

That’s just some tremendous stuff.
