Meet Ben Powers, Broncos’ newly-signed left guard who has zero interest in social media and spends his free time playing Overwatch on his Xbox.
An unranked recruit coming out of high school, his best college offer was from Pittsburg State, an NCAA Division II school in Pittsburg, Kansas. Powers instead opted to attend Butler Community College, where he developed into one of the best JUCO guards in the nation before transferring to Oklahoma after one season.
“Back then, I would tell you how mad I am not getting an opportunity,” Powers said. “But it worked out exactly as it was supposed to. I’m happy how ended up.” “I had a tremendous time in Baltimore,” he said. “I plan to use those as stepping stones to become an even better football player.”
