The Minnesota Vikings selected former Mountlake Terrace High School standout Devante Downs in the seventh round of the NFL draft on Saturday.
Downs, a 6-foot-3, 245-pound linebacker from the University of California, was the 225th player chosen.
Downs appeared in the Golden Bears’ first seven games last season before being sidelined with a right knee injury. He still finished second on the team in tackles with 65, and had three sacks and two interceptions.
