Trevyon Green's New Life, from 410 Pounds to UNC's Starting Right Tackle

Posted Apr 30, 2024
Trevyon Green has always been big. At one time, he was even too big to play football. "At the time, I really didn’t understand that was an extremely big weight, because all my people told me, ‘You’re big, that’s how you are,’" Green said, referring to when he was in high school. "And once I started understanding that’s not regular, I had to make a change." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
