Henry Mondeaux fondly recalled his freshman season at Oregon, the year before the Ducks won the Rose Bowl and played for the national championship.
"It was cool to be a part of that especially as a freshman," Mondeaux said. "To get to come in to that and contribute, it was awesome." Mondeaux signed the New Orleans Saints following the 2018 NFL Draft and the Saints are one of the teams many expect to compete for a Super Bowl championship this season. The 6-foot-5, 280-pound defensive tackle understands he has to make the roster first and is currently focused on getting acclimated to the Saints' defensive scheme. "Everything is new, but its also really exciting," Mondeaux said. "So (I'm) just learning all the new plays and giving full effort. It's a whole new environment so it's a change but it's a good change." He's coming off of a productive senior year with the Ducks logging 45 total tackles, including six for loss and five sacks. Over his final two college seasons, he started all 25 games, and he played in 53 gams over his four seasons at the school. Mondeaux is well equipped to handle the transition as the Oregon native has had had to be thorough throughout his career as he is a type-1 diabetic. "I deal with that and play football and that's what I try and play for -- kids that get affected by stuff like that. It doesn't mean that your dreams are over," Mondeaux said. Mondeaux's form of diabetes requires him to take insulin daily and "anytime I eat anything with sugar in it." read more on NOLA |
