One of the greatest high school football players in Elmore County history added another trophy to his resume.
Prince Tega Wanogho Jr., a 2015 graduate from Edgewood Academy, won his second straight Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night. Wanogho Jr. did not play in the game due to being on the injured reserve list.
Wanogho Jr. has not played since Sept. 27 when he tore his quadriceps against the Chicago Bears in a 41-10 win.
He became the first Edgewood Academy player to play and win a Super Bowl last season, and now he has a second ring.
Wanogho Jr. graduated from Auburn and was drafted in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles. After he was released over a year later, he was signed by the Chiefs where he has played since.
Playing as a reserve, he played in every game last season as the Chiefs won the Super Bowl against the Eagles. This season, he played another reserve role and was the swing tackle for the Chiefs. He played two snaps in the first two games.
In the 41-10 win over the Bears, he played 14 snaps and seven special teams plays before he was injured.
