Meet Sam Salz: The only Orthodox Jew in NCAA football

Sam Salz is likely the only athlete among the approximately 77,000 NCAA football players who is an Orthodox, Shabbat-observant Jew. His journey to the team is even more remarkable considering he had never played football before college and had only attended his first game in late 2021.
