Kenny and David Irons both played football at Dacula high school in Georgia. They both went on to star at Auburn and now, they’re days away from being part of a whole new family and possibly making NFL history.
Kenny is one of the top running backs in the country. His brother David is a top cornerback prospect. The Bills, Packers and Giants all expressed interest in Kenny. And the Dolphins are as well but doubt he’ll be around by the time they select in the draft. Especially if they take a QB with their 9th pick because they don’t select again until 40th.
Think about that! you grow up dreaming of an opportunity to play football in the NFL just like millions of other kids around the country. Playing football as a youngster with your brother and arguing over who scored the last TD in your back yard game. Those conversations went on for years at the family dinner table and now, you’re just days away from hearing your name called into the family known as the NFL.
David Irons is Kenny’s older brother and is expected to go in the 2nd or 3rd round as a defensive back. The last time there were two brothers in the same draft getting the same amount of attention was in 1997 when two guys with the last name BARBER were selected on the same day. Tiki and Rhonde.
Kick your feet back, flip on the tube and wait to see if the Irons’ brothers will have a wrinkle- free size fits “All in the family” jersey by the end of the weekend. I say they both play in the NFL and Kenny goes on the first day.
