Before Emmanuel Ogbah made it to the NFL as a second-round selection in the 2016 draft, and before he signed a massive four-year, $65 million contract this offseason, he was an immigrant whose family moved from Nigeria to Texas.
Ogbah and his family discussed their journey and the Miami Dolphins’ defensive end’s upbringing in a team-produced video on YouTube.

When Miami paid Ogbah this offseason, they locked up a high-character individual, who also produces on the football field. That’s a win-win scenario.
