PROVO — Senior JJ Nwigwe’s BYU football journey began on the offensive line, traversed through the tight end position and now is winding up on the defensive line.
His current stop on the D-line was prompted by academics and a chance to get more of an opportunity to play.
“I needed more time for school. I’m really happy that the coaches allowed me to have another year to redshirt so I could graduate in December (with a degree in economics). That's what my decision was based off of," Nwigwe said.
