The Kansas City Chiefs’ win today over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday means that Ambler-native and Wissahickon High School grad (class of 2012) Tanoh Kpassagnon will be playing in his second Super Bowl. Last year the Chiefs defeated the San Fransisco 49’ers for the championship.
Kpassagnon, a defensive end, played college football for Villanova University and was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft.
Kpassagnon is a member of Wissahickon’s Hall of Fame and his Hall of Fame profile describes him as having been a hard-working student who was a member of the National Honors Society, Future Business Leaders of America, CASA, and the Asian Studies Club. In addition to football, he also competed in basketball and track.
This week, CBS3 interviewed his former coaches at Wissahickon and at Villanova. Watch below.
