Miami and VT’s star QBs, Cam Ward and Kyron Drones, are cousins.
When asked, about the relationship in this week's press conference Ward stated:
“We found out we were cousins my junior year of high school.” Cam shared. “It’s been good. We’ve been building ever since. We work with the same quarterback coach in Houston, TX, in the off-season. I’m just ready to play the game.”
