Marcel Reed is one lucky kid.
Marcel, the son of Tennessee State football head coach Rod Reed, got to have lunch with New York Giants cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie last week while he was back on the Tennessee State campus for offseason workouts.
The next day, Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton stopped by Marcel's basketball game.
Newton isn't trading his Auburn allegiances for Tennessee State, though. The reigning NFL MVP befriended Rodgers-Cromartie when the cornerback was a college teammate of Newton's brother, Cecil.
