My Take

Joey Bosa carries a real football pedigree, the son of former NFL player John Bosa and older brother of Nick, yet he carved out his own identity rather than riding the name. Going third overall in the 2016 draft after Ohio State, then winning Defensive Rookie of the Year, is the kind of immediate impact that's hard to fake. At 196 centimeters he's built to disrupt, but what I respect is how he met the weight of those expectations head-on. Coming from a football family can be a burden as much as a gift, and proving yourself in a sport you grew up around takes its own quiet courage.

Overview

Joseph Anthony Bosa (; born July 11, 1995) is an American professional football defensive end.

He is the son of former NFL player John Bosa and the older brother of current NFL player Nick Bosa.
