Former South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler is one of the newest members of the New Orleans Saints after the Saints selected him in the fifth round of the NFL draft on Saturday.
Rattler was expected to be drafted Day 2, but his stock apparently dipped due to a negative portrayal on an old reality TV series on Netflix.
Spencer wasn’t “rattled” — pun intended — falling to Day 3 of the draft as he said he is happy with where he landed.
“At the end of the day it’s a blessing to get picked wherever,” Rattler said, via ESPN. “I knew we were waiting around a day or two but I had faith that I would be picked today. … I was very happy the Saints came and picked me, what a great feeling.”
One person who apparently does not hate Spencer Rattler is his girlfriend, Yazmina Gonzalez.
Gonzalez took to Instagram to celebrate the Saints selection of Rattler.
