With the 126th pick in the fourth round, Khairi Fortt becomes the latest Golden Bear in the NFL, joining the New Orleans Saints!
Cal great DL Cameron Jordan is also a Saint, so their front seven is looking pretty Golden to me.

Fortt joined the Bears as a transfer who left Penn State following the Sandusky scandal. After a medical redshirt in 2012, he became a solid and steady contributor for Cal in 2013.

Congrats to Khairi and go tell Canal Street Chronicles all about their talented new linebacker!
