Sure Deuce was going to find a job somewhere in the NFL. In the moment it didn’t look like it. Chris Vaughn left the draft room and walked into the hallway.
Jerry Jones, the Cowboys owner and general manager, wanted to surprise Chis Vaughn. He told him to turn in the draft card with a prospective player on it. One problem. NFL teams don’t turn in cards anymore. It’s an automated system where all a team does is push a button to make a selection. “Man that was super emotional,” Deuce Vaughn said. “My emotions were all over the place. Just to hear not only himself, but Jerry Jones on a separate line, was huge. I saw the Dallas tag whenever it came on my phone, and I had to take a couple of seconds to process that. It’s an unbelievable feeling and I’m super excited about the future.”Saturday afternoon was one of those family moments. It was real. It was raw.
