SUMMARY: Cody Sherer, a standout from Missouri, was not drafted in the NFL despite 257 players being selected among 32 teams. Shortly after the draft, he received a $240,000 contract from the San Francisco 49ers. During mini and training camps, Sherer has impressed coaches and fellow players with his hard work, intelligence, and consistent performance. His story mirrors that of Division One coaches who overlooked him in high school. With a solid running back already in the roster, Sherer may not need to play every down, but his development could lead to a significant role on the team.
