Morotoluwa Ojomo (born 15 August 2001) is a Nigerian professional American football defensive tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League (NFL). A native of Lagos, he moved to the United States in 2009 and played college football for the Texas Longhorns.
Early life
Ojomo was born on 15 August 2001, in Lagos, Nigeria. He began primary school at age three, and his family moved to California in 2009. His father is a pastor and his mother worked for an information technology company. While in seventh grade, his family moved again, this time to Houston, Texas. Ojomo attended Katy High School, being two years younger than most of his classmates due to having started his education at 3 in his home country. He did not play varsity football as a freshman or as a sophomore, and additionally said that he had not figured out how to workout by that time. However, following his sophomore year, he began getting serious with weight training and running, and made the varsity team as a junior, eventually earning All-District honors as a defensive lineman at the end of the year.
Ojomo became a highly-regarded recruit following his senior year, during which he led a defense that allowed under eight points-per-game, while recording eight sacks, 15 tackles-for-loss, three forced fumbles and two recoveries. He was a unanimous first-team All-District selection, was named the defensive most valuable player of the district, and was named second-team all-state. 247Sports ranked him one of the top-300 recruits nationally, as well as the 36th-best in Texas, and the 25th-best defensive tackle overall. Ojomo was a three-star recruit and received numerous Division I offers, including from Notre Dame, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Alabama and Miami, among others. He eventually accepted an offer from Texas.
