Terrence Wheatley NFL Draft Bio
Terrence Wheatley (born May 5, 1985) is an American football cornerback. He was drafted by the New England Patriots in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft. He played college football at Colorado.
He has also been a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans.
As a freshman at the University of Colorado, Wheatley saw action in 12 games, starting twice on defense. He had 24 tackles and five pass deflections during 268 snaps on defense. When Wheatley and Samuel Joseph started against Baylor, it marked the first time in Colorado history that two freshmen started at cornerback. Wheatley had eight tackles in the Baylor game, which was his season high.
As a sophomore, he played in all 13 games, starting the last five, including the Houston Bowl. However during the season, he was held back by wrist, groin and hamstring injuries. He had 33 tackles, three passes broken up and four interceptions, which ranked second on the team.[1] His first collegiate interception was returned for a touchdown, making him the 12th player in Colorado history to accomplish that feat.
In 2005, his true junior year, he had wrist surgery in the spring but because the wrist continued to bother him, he missed the entire season.[1] As a redshirt junior in 2006 he had 57 tackles, five interceptions, and 11 passes broken up. After the season, he was named first-team All-Big 12 and All-Colorado.
During his senior season in 2007, Wheatley had 42 tackles and five interceptions in the first 10 games, before suffering a hairline fracture and missing the rest of the regular season. He was able to return for the Independence Bowl. He was named a third-team All-American and first-team All-Big 12 at cornerback, and received an honorable mention as a kick returner. Wheatley also appeared on the official watchlists for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy and the Jim Thorpe Award.
