NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans have drafted Rhodes scholar and Florida State safety Myron Rolle with the final pick in the sixth round.

The 6-foot-2, 215-pound Rolle took off from football in 2009 to study in Oxford with his Rhodes scholarship. He entered the draft and waited to hear his name until the Titans called and used the 207th pick overall on him.

Rolle returned in mid-December to start preparing for his return to football at the Senior Bowl in January and the NFL Combine in February. He finished his undergraduate degree in premed in 212 years.
