Wilson’s family wasn’t the only support the quarterback had in Cleveland. Some of the quarterback’s BYU coaches, including Kalani Sitake, joined Wilson at the NFL Draft.
Thinking about how far I’ve come, had to call Coach Sitake. He made me better every day. Shout out @verizon for connecting us. #NFLDraft2021 #VerizonPartner pic.twitter.com/9ySqnXuTNG
