As documented here at Eleven Warriors in March, Olatoke is a member of the NFL’s International Pathway Program, which provides opportunities for players from outside the United States to play in the league. Should the Eagles choose to sign him, they would have the opportunity to keep 17 players on their practice squad this season if Olatoke is one of those players.
Olatoke played one season for Ohio State’s club football team in 2022, catching seven passes for 231 yards and four touchdowns. He was previously a sprinter for Ohio State’s track and field team.
