Born in Ft. Worth, Texas, Bradley Roby grew up in Suwanee, Georgia, playing his High School ball at Peachtree Ridge. During his senior year, Roby played wide receiver and defensive back, earning All-State honors on the offensive side of the ball. As a defender, he racked up 42 tackles and 6 interceptions his senior season. When he wasn’t playing football, he was winning track meets in the 100 and 200-meter competitions.
Recruited to Ohio State, Roby went on to be the only defensive player in the nation to score touchdowns 3 ways, recovering a muffed punt in the end zone against the Miami Hurricanes, then a blocked punt against the Indiana Hoosiers and a pick-6 against the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
