Early years
A native of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Rhaney lost his mother to a sudden illness when he was in seventh grade.[1] He attended Academy High School in Coral Springs, Florida, before it was shut down, and later Stranahan High School. Because his transcript from Academy was lost, he could not meet NCAA requirements to accept a scholarship offer from Alabama A&M University. Instead, he enrolled at Ellsworth CC, and later Tennessee State.
Professional career
Rhaney was selected by the Rams in the seventh round of the 2014 NFL Draft.[2] He was place on injured reserve, effectively ending his rookie season before it even began.
