Spencer Fano blev torsdag aften udnævnt til nr. 9 i NFL-draften af Cleveland Browns. Den offensive tackle var straks begejstret, men opdagelsen af, at han ikke ville skulle stå over for Myles Garrett i sin første sæson, gjorde glæden endnu større.
"En af mine første tanker var: 'Jeg skal ikke spille mod Myles Garrett om søndagen'," udtalte Fano ved en pressekonference torsdag. Selvom han slipper for at møde Garrett i kampe, vil de to spillere stadig træne mod hinanden dagligt – og Fano ser det som en mulighed for at udvikle sig.
"Jeg er så begejstret. Der er ingen bedre måde at blive bedre på end at træne mod ham. Måske den bedste spiller i verden, så at træne mod ham hver dag bliver en stor fordel," sagde Fano.
Garrett deltager pt. ikke i Browns’ forberedelser, da holdet stadig er i den indledende fase af offseason-programmet. Der er dog stadig masser af tid til, at Fano kan lære af sin erfarne holdkammerat, inden sæsonen for alvor tager fat.
