Jeffrey M'ba assina com os Commanders como agente livre não draftado

Jeffrey M'ba, um defensive lineman de 27 anos natural do Gabão, juntou-se ao Washington Commanders como agente livre não draftado. O ex-jogador da SMU traz uma trajetória única e ferramentas físicas para a equipe após um caminho tortuoso até o futebol americano profissional.

M'ba cresceu mudando-se entre Gabão, França e Camarões antes de chegar aos Estados Unidos aos 18 anos. Ele frequentou o ensino médio em Baltimore e Connecticut, depois jogou futebol americano universitário em Auburn, Purdue e SMU. Na SMU, ele teve uma temporada de 2025 sólida e impressionou no Senior Bowl, mas não foi selecionado no draft devido à sua idade e experiência limitada no esporte.
