Five Fast Facts: Robert Woods

4\. Woods graduated from USC in 2016, returning to the school three years after he was drafted by the Bills to earn his degree in policy, planning and development. When he graduated, he also delivered the commencement speech, remembering his older sister, Olivia Wood, who died of cancer in 2007.

"Before she left, she left me with something I would never forget," shared Woods in the speech. "It was her last words to me. I came home that day after school and went straight to her room, as I always did, and she said to me, 'I thought you were going to model.' Slightly confused, believing it was the medicine that was talking, she said again, 'You have to be a model.' Olivia left us that night in the early morning, however these words have never left me.

"It later hit me what she was talking about, what she was asking of me. She wanted me to be a role model. Living in a spotlight of being a top recruit, playing under the bright lights at the (Los Angeles) Coliseum or constantly being watched by those following our footsteps, she wanted me to know, for us all to know, to be an example and a leader for those who are next."

5\. He attended Serra High School in Gardena, California where he was a member of the 2009 USA Today All-USA first team, finishing his final season with 15 touchdowns, 1,000 plus yards receiving and eight interceptions while playing on both sides of the ball.
