New York Giants offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu destigmatizes stutter on journey from UNC to NFL

Posted May 14, 2022
Growing up, Joshua Ezeudu had low self esteem because he stuttered. "I just want to be a role model, not even for children, but for everybody who has a stutter or an issue keeping them from being normal," Ezeudu said. As a kid, Ezeudu said he couldn’t recall a star athlete with stuttering problems. "Yes, I do stutter and I’m not going to hide it at all." (WRAL Sports Fan)
