Washington linebacker Drew Fowler is going viral for his message to prospective employers following the end of his college football career.
Fowler, a senior linebacker who played primarily on special teams, had some fun with his farewell message three days after ending his collegiate career with a 35-34 loss to Louisville in the Sun Bowl. The post reads like a standard NFL Draft declaration, as Fowler thanked coaches, staff members, and teammates. At the end, however, Fowler takes a funny turn.
“With that being said, I’m officially declaring for the job market. In other words, I need a job,” Fowler wrote. “If you or anybody you know has an employment opportunity, I am your guy. Gritty, hardworking, sneaky athletic, locker room guy, will bring my lunch pail to work.
“My LinkedIn is updated, and I am #OpenToWork.”

Fowler is one of many college football players that will not be heading to the NFL. He managed to garner a lot of attention and laughs with his post, and it would not be a surprise if it lands him a few job offers.
Fowler played in 49 games during his Washington career, collecting 42 total tackles, primarily as a special teams player.
