Emmanuel Ogbah made sure NFL franchises know he is ready to work hard in an article in The Players' Tribune.
Thank you for considering me as an addition to your football team. My name is Emmanuel Ogbah, and I want to be the next leader of your defense.
I know what hard work looks like. I know what it means to sacrifice. My family came to America from Lagos, Nigeria, when I was nine years old. I was amazed by things as simple as traffic lights, which we did not have in Lagos. We were not poor, we just lived in an underdeveloped area.
