Jack Bech entered 2025 hoping that this could be the best year of his life, but tragedy struck immediately. His brother was killed in a terrorist attack in New Orleans on January 1st, just as Jack was set to end his college football career and move to the NFL.
Since the tragedy happened, Bech has made all of the efforts to keep his brother's memory alive. He was invited to the Senior Bowl to play as a wide receiver and was named the MVP of the game after catching the game-winning touchdown.
As the NFL wraps up the scouting combine on Sunday, he was once again paying tributes to his brother, wearing cleats with the message "and ye who stay on the path of righteousness shall reap what thine hath sewn" on one side, while angel wings were drawn on the other.

"I know my brother has got me now until the end of time. He pushes me to new heights. He will be with me. He's got the best seat in the house here in Indianapolis."
