NFL 1st Round Pick

The Washington Redskins' first-round draft pick is deaf in one ear. Ryan Kerrigan played defense for Purdue before his selection for the pros. His hearing loss came after a series of ear infections. He was diagnosed at the age of 8. He says it hasn't hindered his performance on the field. He holds the Big Ten record of 14 forced fumbles and is second second all-time in sacks for Purdue. He won't be the only one on the team with hearing loss. Redskins safety Reed Doughty wears hearing aids.
