Eagles Missed On Ansah, He Reminds Them
Associated Press/Rick Osentoski
Ziggy Ansah is currently tied for the league lead in sacks after rattling off 3.5 against the Philadelphia Eagles, a team that passed on him in the 2013 draft. A physical freak, Ansah is one of the fastest, leanest and strongest players on the Lions. So how did the four teams that had a shot at him miss so badly?
Ziggy Ansah doesn’t carry himself like a 279-pound bruiser.
Ansah talks with a quiet tenor, maintains his manners when speaking and portrays more of reserved personality than a rugged one.
That’s the thing with 26-year-old Accra, Ghana native, he’s not someone where what you see on the surface tells the whole story.
