There’s an old saying that goes like this (or something similar). You never hear the mention of offensive linemen during an NFL broadcast unless they’re doing something wrong.

Perhaps the originator of that theory never took into account that many moons later, the Philadelphia Eagles would take a flier on Jordan Mailata, a former rugby star that never played a down of football prior to being taken in the seventh round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Weight:

157 kg
