As a highly-rated NFL Draft prospect, Joey Porter Jr was one of just 17 players invited to attend the first-round of the draft in Kansas City.
Those prospects are usually invited with the idea that they will be selected on the first night - as they sit in the green room and wait to hear their name called by commissioner Roger Goodell.
Like many other, Porter Jr waited for hours to hear his name. But he, along with three others were not drafted as 31 selections were made on the opening night - forcing them to go back to their hotels to wait 24 hours for the second round.
