Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
“I wasn't about to let something like this distract me or get me off course from something that was destined for me, and that was to be a starting defensive tackle for The Ohio State,” Garrett said. “So I was more determined than ever.”
Garrett went on to become an All-American for the Buckeyes that season, recording four tackles for loss, two sacks and an interception for a touchdown in just eight games to help lead Ohio State to the national championship game.
Garrett returned for a fifth-year senior season in 2021, leading the Buckeyes with 5.5 sacks and racking up seven total tackles for loss. Garrett also had another defensive touchdown, scooping up a fumble caused by Zach Harrison to score on the other end of the field in a season-opening win at Minnesota.
The Bishop Gorman product and Las Vegas native was named first-team All-Big Ten and Polynesian Player of the Year for his efforts in 2021, and now moves on to the next level, where he’ll hope to carve out a role in the Titans’ defensive tackle rotation despite his surprising slide out of the draft.

Good landing spot, but wtf? I am wondering if there was some health evaluation issue or something, and I only say that bc I have no idea how else he doesn't get drafted. Here is to Haskell being the best NFL player undrafted in the coming years.
