Bassa also wore the green dot for the National team, earning the trust of the staff to communicate plays.
“I want to show these teams that I’m a true four-down linebacker,” Bassa said. “I know that all eyes are going to be here, so it’s a great opportunity to show teams that I can play the run very well, guard running backs out of the backfield, run with tight ends and run with receivers when you do need me to. So, I can play at all levels. And then at special teams as well. Special teams is a huge value and I take a lot of pride in it as well.”
