His tremendous week in the Port City has reportedly raised his stock heading into April\u2019s NFL draft.<\/p>\n<p>But it was the storyline surrounding Bech\u2019s private life that made things so special.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, tragedy struck the city of New Orleans when a New Year\u2019s Eve terrorist attack caused the death of 14 people and injuries to numerous others.<\/p>\n<p>One of those killed was Bech\u2019s brother Tiger, a former Princeton football player. Tiger\u2019s death came just weeks before Bech was expected to report for Senior Bowl practice in Mobile.<\/p>\n<p>After the game and dramatic finish, Bech spoke to the media and emotionally declared it was his brother who gave him the strength to have the performance he did.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy brother has some wings on me,\u201d Bech said. \u201cHe gave them to me, and he let that all take place. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Tiger, nothing else but them. They\u2019re the reason I did what I did today. I attribute it all to them\u2026I\u2019m just the physical person doing it but I attribute it all to them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bech took the time to join WNSP on Monday afternoon after his performance and inspiring story.
