Bills Rousseau reveals what his alternative career path to NFL was
Buffalo Bills Greg Rousseau reveals he would be an FBI Agent if not in NFL.
Bills defensive end Greg Rousseau, currently leading the NFL with six sacks this season, has revealed he explored a different career path before making it to the NFL. The sixth-year edge rusher, drafted 30th overall in 2021, expressed to NFL Insider Jordan Shultz that he would have pursued a career as an FBI agent if the opportunity had not presented itself in football.
Rousseau, who majored in criminal justice at Miami University, cited watching crime and intelligence shows like True Detective for inspiration regarding his potential alternative profession. The Bills' new defensive coordinator, Jim Leonhard, praised Rousseau's performance and attributed his success to the 3-4 hybrid scheme, where the outside linebacker excels.
Rousseau, while acknowledging his NFL journey was the right choice, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to play fast and make an impact on the field.
