He originally was a pitcher drafted in the 2nd round of the 2002 MLB draft by the Yankees. He was traded around the league, until he left in 2006. He enrolled at Oklahoma State in 2007. In 2010 he was named Oklahoma's starter and played a fantastic 2010 and 2011 season before entering the NFL draft.

He was in Minor League Baseball from 02-06(I think, not sure if it's 08 or 06). That's why he's so old. He went straight to the minor leagues from high school. -
Well he was born in a year that was a long time ago. In all seriousness he played baseball and actually went pro so that set him back a little while. -
He dropped out of college to join the MLB, but he decided baseball was not for him so he went back to school and joined the football team. -
Well he is 2 yrs younger than Big Ben,and younger than Tom Brady
So the real Q is: Tom Brady and Big Ben are getting old. What will their teams do about it? -
He left school to place baseball and was in the yankees farm system, but decided to go back to school to play football -

As time passes, we get older. So..... I'm guessing more time has passed since his birth than the average draft pick.
