It’s been a long journey for Stone Mountain, Georgia’s Thomas Incoom.
A native Ghanian who moved to the United States as a teenager, Incoom picked up football very late, starting out as a kicker before eventually earning a two-star grade as a tight end. He would go on to land a spot on the roster of Valdosta State, a Division II power program four hours down the highway. Incoom was converted to edge rusher after gettign redshirted as a freshman, which ultimately proved to be a pivotal decision, as he managed to earn a starting job midway through his second season, and win first-team all-Gulf South Conference honors as a redshirt sophomore in 2019.
