Ziggy Ansah says he knew nothing about American football until he got to BYU.
The 6-5, 271-pound defensive end/outside linebacker grew up playing soccer in Ghana. When he got to Utah, he tried out for the basketball team a couple times, but didn’t make it. He ran track too before eventually deciding to give football a shot.
“I was really athletic,” Ansah said at the Combine, where he ran a 4.63 40. “I didn’t want to just sit around and go to school. I wanted to do something. Since basketball didn’t work out, I wanted to do football.”
