Nearly two months have passed since Sal Lupoli Jr. opted to attend a pro day at Boston College just days removed from a game with the Massachusetts Pirates.
The move still doesn’t feel any less dicey than it did when Lupoli’s whatever-it-takes mentality was brought to yet another crossroads in his journey of reaching the National Football League.
But it certainly paid dividends. After impressing NFL brass at the pro day in March — and developing a strong roll of film with the Pirates — Lupoli received a phone call from New England Patriots executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf following the NFL Draft.
The Chelmsford native was invited to attend last weekend’s rookie minicamp, which was held from Friday-Sunday in Foxboro with recently drafted rookies and select invites.
