RENTON, Washington - Shaquem Griffin had walked away from his cellphone, on his way to use the restroom, when it buzzed. His twin brother, Shaquill, recognized the 425 area code that flashed on the screen and started charging after his brother.
"I think I was more scared of him tackling me in the bathroom and not knowing what was happening than anything," Shaquem said.
What already was the feel-good story of the NFL Draft got an even better storybook ending on Saturday when the University of Central Florida (UCF) star linebacker whose left hand was amputated when he was a child was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in the fifth round.
