He was the Green Bay Packers' first selection in last month's NFL draft. And now cornerback Ahmad Carroll will become the first of the 2004 rookie class to sit down for a Live Chat on Packers.com.
Carroll will take part in the Live Chat this Tuesday, May 25, starting at approximately 12:30 p.m. CT.
The 25th player chosen overall in the 2004 draft, Carroll is entering the pros after just three collegiate seasons at the University of Arkansas, where he made 140 tackles and four interceptions as one of the top cover-corners in the nation.
Standing 5-foot-10 and possessing blazing speed, Carroll also competed for the Razorbacks track team, earning All-America honors in both the 100- and 200-meters.
Nicknamed 'Batman' since his days playing youth football, when he once leaped over the head of an opposing offensive lineman, Carroll reportedly has a 41-inch vertical leap.
Fans can ask Carroll about these things and more in the Live Chat.
If you plan to take part in Tuesday's chat, please be sure to remember the following tips:
Be courteous and respectful. Packers.com will not post any profanity, and chat guests are unlikely to answer questions that are rude in nature. If you have 'tough' questions, think about how you want to word them so they will get answered.
Be thoughtful. Among the hundreds of questions submitted, the ones that stand out tend to get the best answers. Anticipate some of the common questions and try to ask something unique. Chats are often bogged down with the same questions being asked over and over again. Be different.
Send questions once. Sending the same question multiple times will not get your question noticed. Instead, your submissions will be flagged and ignored.
Finally, remember that this is your chance to chat with a member of the Packers. Utilize the option to its fullest. We hope you have fun!
