The Green Bay Packers selected offensive tackle Sean Rhyan from UCLA with the 92nd overall pick in round 3 of the NFL Draft Friday night.
According to the Packers, Rhyan is a three-year starter at left tackle.
"Rhyan (6-5, 321) started 31 games over the past three seasons, earning first-team All-Pac-12 honors from the league's coaches and second-team recognition from the media last season," the Packers said in a news release Friday.
Rhyan became a starter as a freshman in 2019. He earned All-America honors from multiple outlets.
The Packers say he was the first true freshman to start a season opener at the tackle position for UCLA in seven years.
