Jimmy Horn Jr. may have been destined to land with the Carolina Panthers.
On Sunday, the University of Colorado football program released their behind-the-scenes look at Horn’s NFL draft experience. The half-hour mini-documentary follows the 22-year-old wide receiver around in the weekend leading up to his selection, and included a very interesting (and perhaps prophetical) trip to the athletic headwear retail store Lids.

Horn, of course, would be taken by the Panthers in the sixth round, with the 208th overall pick of the draft.
The speedy pass catcher/possible soothsayer has since wasted little time in making a quick impression. Horn turned heads almost immediately during last week’s rookie minicamp, where he put some of his exciting explosiveness on display.
Given Carolina’s lack of a real vertical threat in recent years, Horn could find his way onto the 53-man roster come Week 1. But only time, and maybe Horn, will tell.
