However, Harrison Jr. will be present at the draft festivities, anticipating a potential selection in the early rounds, possibly within the first five picks. Speaking at the NFL’s “Play Football” pre-draft event, he emphasized the significance of the draft experience, stating that walking across the stage and shaking hands with the commissioner is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he didn’t want to miss.
