Redskins’ Ty Nsekhe took winding, bumpy road to NFL
ASHBURN, Va. — Not too long ago, Ty Nsekhe was making $150 a week playing Arena Football and running on hope.
Now he’s the starting left tackle for the Washington Redskins — an opportunity afforded him after Pro Bowler Trent Williams’ suspension and years of patience. Nsekhe has four games to prove what he has always believed and tried to show during every tryout: he belongs in the NFL.
“I always knew in the back of my mind I was destined to be here, so something just stayed with me,” Nsekhe said this week.
