Another example: Sammis Reyes, from Chile.

Curious if you know how many of these international players have worked out

Let him eat cake.

"Let them eat cake" is the traditional translation of the French phrase "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche", said to have been spoken in the 17th or 18th century by "a great princess" upon being told that the peasants had no bread. The French phrase mentions brioche, a bread enriched with butter and eggs, considered a luxury food. The quotation is taken to reflect either the princess's frivolous disregard for the starving peasants or her poor understanding of their plight.

Some dispute that Marie Antoinette ever stated this. That saying "let them eat cake" (english translation) was a common expression back in those guillotine days. Of course nowadays the slang meaning of "cake" refers to attractive, plump buttocks particularly on a female. Hey, I believe in keeping folks well informed in here.

Not many.

Efe Obada (Cowboys, now Panthers) and Jordan Mailata (Eagles) are the only ones to go through the official International Player Pathway Program that have made any appreciable dent. You have a couple here and there who have hung on practice squads for a couple of years.

I’ve always wondered why there aren’t more players in the nfl from Canadian league
I assume they have football in HS and colleges there?
Some countries I guess there aren’t opportunities for guys who could be developed but since Canada has a pro league you’d think there would be guys to steal away from those cold winters lol

So you have assessed he would own Aaron Donald, but somehow he hasnt supplanted Williams at RG.

You must really hate these coaches. We have that kind of talent and he cant even crack the starters?

Last season there was no regular training camp or preseasons games to impress the coaches. He needs a good amount of reps this season to showcase his skillset to the coaches to win them over.

Actually, the slang word was "cakes" - referring to the female butt - dates back to the previous (20th) century.
Soul Music Legend James Brown made a modest hit song about big, curvaceous derrieres. "For Goodness Sakes Look At Those Cakes". It was a tune on an album with a similar title - 'Take A Look At Those Cakes'. The album was released in 1978.
