SO COOL: You HAVE to watch one-handed Shaquem Griffin's reaction to getting drafted in the NFL (have a tissue handy)

One of the most compelling storylines of the 2018 NFL Draft surrounds former UCF linebacker Shaquem Griffin, who is without his left hand due to an amputation he underwent at four years of age.

A remarkable story, Griffin was selected in the fifth round and 141st overall by the Seattle Seahawks. Just watch his reaction.

There are a lot of boring storylines in the world of sports today. This is certainly not one of those. Best wishes to Griffin as he continues to be an inspiration.
