Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Lawrence Okoye was accepted into Oxford Law School -- yeah, the fancy school in England. He was an Olympic athlete, having been a member of the 2012 English Olympic team as a discusses thrower. He was also a promising rugby winger in his native UK.
But despite such and impressive resume and ample opportunities to do other things, Okoye wants to be an NFL player.
He’s on the Dolphins roster and has bounced around with other teams. He was on and cut from the San Francisco, Arizona and New York Jets practice squads and also spent some time with Dallas and the Chicago Bears last year.
