From a walk on tryout at Ball State college to leading an offense in the NSFL, this is the story of Kyle Cobb.
The last week has been hectic for all the prospects with calls coming in left and right. Kyle Cobb had many talks with teams including the Wraiths, Outlaws, Liberty, and most importantly the Legion. Come draft day, Cobb was ready to be selected 2nd round. "I had a lot of teams tell me about their interest, I guess it wasn't to be. Jokes on them *laughs*" The 3rd, 4th, 5th and finally 6 rounds came and went with his name still on the board. Unhappy with his falling draft stock he began to lose hope until it happened. Las Vegas, with their win now strategy had traded away many early round picks for players in the expansion draft. In came selection #41 overall, the Legion's first ever prospect draft selection, Kyle Cobb. It finally happened he'd been selected, and it wasn't by whom he initially expected, but he didn't care. He was in the big leagues. "I was surprised Vegas took me, and I was even more surprised I was their first ever pick." Yes, he was history in the making.
Kyle was so happy he booked seats on the next flight to Las Vegas, and after a long layover in Chicago he finally arrived in his soon to be new home. Las Vegas was happy to take Kyle with such a late pick. Sixth round was well after many teams valued him to be, and the Legion management was ecstatic. After meeting with the Legion front office officially, Cobb was on his way to enjoy the sights and sounds of Paradise..... Nevada. Kyle had only been to the city once before on a family trip, but this time he wasn't with family.
"I recall starting at the Bellagio, *laughs* but not much after that." Table hopping, and casino hopping he went to enjoy his first night on the town. Not one to go easy on his boozing, Kyle was blacked out before midnight. "I was really hoping I didn't have a drug test coming up *laughs* I'm not entirely sure what I did after about 11:45." Fortunately he didn't partake in any illegal narcotics, but did end up looking different by the end of the night. "Oh the tattoo *laughs* I swear I said Las Vegas Legion, but I ended up with a Golden knights tramp stamp."
After his night on the town, Cobb soon settled into the Las Vegas community. Beginning to get along with his new teammates, the Legion, and their star running back we're ready for their inaugural season together.
