LONDON (AP) Jason Godrick plans to “dominate” as an NFL offensive lineman. The first hurdle seems like a big one, though. “I've never played an organized game of football before,” the 6-foot-5, 293-pound Nigerian said. “I've been blessed to be a quick learner, a very good student.” The 21-year-old Lagos native, who goes by “Chu,” was one of the more than 40 prospects representing 13 countries who competed in the NFL's international combine Tuesday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The NFL International Combine in London [Oct. 3-4] will feature 12 Nigerian players, most of whom are recent converts to the sport after playing basketball for much of their childhoods.
