KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - North Kansas City alum Adetomiwa Adebawore shot up draft boards during the pre-draft process, and he was eventually taken in the fourth round of the NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts.
Adebawore was projected by many as a third-round pick or later heading into the NFL Combine in Indianapolis in late February. There, he stood out with exceptional physical testing numbers and a record-setting 40-yard dash.
