ESPN’s E:60 profiled Nate Ebner on last nights show. Ebner started out as a rugby star, the youngest player to ever play on the US national rugby sevens team at 17. He walked on to Ohio State’s football team as a junior and shined on special teams and was drafted by the New England Patriots in the 6th round in 2012.
