CFL draft prospect Brissett has valuable asset to guide him through process
Dejon Brissett has a valuable asset to help guide him through the CFL draft process.
The University of Virginia receiver’s younger brother, Oshae, is a guard/forward on a two-way deal with the NBA’s Toronto Raptors. Oshae Brissett, 21, declared for the ’19 draft following two seasons at Syracuse but signed with Toronto as a free agent after not being selected.
“His process didn’t go the way he wanted it to go,” Dejon Brissett said during a CFL conference call Tuesday. “His thing was just always stay positive, stay hopeful and whatever happens is supposed to happen.
“That’s kind of been helping me throughout the process.”
