The Baltimore Ravens added to their practice squad by signing defensive end Adedayo Odeleye.
Hailing from Nigeria, Odeleye made his way to the NFL through the league's International Player Pathway Program. He went unsigned in 2021, but was invited back in 2022 and ultimately signed with the Houston Texans. The 26-year-old has spent the past two years on Houston's practice squad.
Odeleye previously played American football and Rugby at Loughbourough University in England. He also played for the Berlin Thunder of the European League of Football, recording 34 tackles, 14 tackles for loss and seven sacks to earn a spot on the ELF All-Star team. "In terms of the Xs and Os, that's really not something I've ever struggled with. I'm a very big fan of the sport, the way I watch football is a bit different, I watch on Sundays and then during the week I go through the games and breakdown what's happening behind the scenes and why players are doing what they're doing, what coaches are asking players to do.
