Against all odds, Yahya Attia has defied expectations to become a rising star in American Football.
Hailing from a small town in Egypt, Attia's love affair with the sport began in Europe. Despite shouldering breadwinner responsibilities as a teenager, he persevered through adversity, including a potentially career-threatening injury.
He has worked his way up to playing college football with Coach Deion Sanders and the Colorado football team.
He is currently on the team's depth chart for football games and could be the FIRST EVER NFL PLAYER FROM EGYPT.
