Former Legacy High and Colorado Buffaloes football player Nick Kasa is garnering attention at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., this week.

MOBILE, Ala. — He is surrounded by all-conference players, All Americans and bowl game MVPs, yet Nick Kasa still has found a way to stand out.

He is in a crowd of NFL hopefuls he never expected to be in, playing a position he had never tried until his career at Colorado was in its final stages.

“There’s no way I thought I’d be in this position,” Kasa said. “Just no way. Not even close, not even close. And if I wouldn’t have switched positions, I wouldn’t be.”

Kasa is the lone representative from a football-playing college or university in Colorado at the Senior Bowl this week. The former prep All-American defensive lineman at Legacy, now is a tight end who has put himself on the NFL’s radar.
