"I'm with 150 of my closest family and friends at Giuseppe's Restaurant in Richboro, Pennsylvania, right near my hometown," McGlinchey told Bay Area reporters via a conference call after being selected by the San Francisco 49ers with the ninth-overall pick.
Notre Dame posted videos on the school's official Twitter account of McGlinchey's emotional reaction to being drafted.
The first video is of the tackle receiving a call from 49ers general manager John Lynch, head coach Kyle Shanahan, and owner Jed York.
The second is of McGlinchey watching his selection announced on television.
The 49ers also posted a video on the team's official Twitter account of Lynch and Shanahan speaking with McGlinchey on the phone.
H/T to Patrick Tulini for the find.
