Rock bottom to NFL stardom: The rise of London's Jermaine Eluemunor

Jermaine Eluemunor is a self-confessed simple man, striving to inspire by way of a not-so-simple journey. From London to New York, he is a big man with a big heart and a big message.

The Giants offensive tackle dresses up, hosts pretend tea parties and plays the role of punching bag as a proud girl-dad to his young daughters of a week day, and manhandles the greatest athletes on the planet of a weekend. He enjoys the serenity of fishing and escapism of anime off the field, and flourishes in the art of violence on it.

Eluemunor has bridged a transatlantic chasm, swatted away early rejection and overcome 'rock bottom' amid the fiercest of challenges to his mental health to emerge as one of Britain's most gifted footballing exports and, so too, one of the NFL's premier players in his position.
