Tied by the American dream to join the NFL, the ex-player of the French team with seven Joachim Trouabal will soon know his fate. During its individual preparation, it was flashed at 37.27 km/h, which is a new record in Pro day (equivalent to detection for the pros).
Since his departure from France to try an improbable bet in the United States, Joachim Trouabal has clung to his dream to integrate a franchise from NFL, the domestic American football championship. In his preparation process, he has followed different stages which must lead him to a “draft”, that is to say being selected by a league franchise. He told us a few months ago, before his departure to the United States: “In August, I participated in a first session, which they call private training. By following, I was selected to pass the “international combines”, a sum of physical tests to measure speed, quality of jumps, agility … It was in October, north of London, for three, four days. I passed this stage and here I am between two deadlines. The next one will be the international program. From January 18 and for ten weeks, I will be based in the United States, on the IMG campus (in Florida, editor’s note). In this training camp, I will work as much physical as well as learning the game. ”. Recently, during his pro Day (the last opportunity for the Draft candidates to demonstrate their talents in front of NFL staff), he managed to make a very high quality sprint on 40 yards. Flashed at 23.16 MPH (namely 37.27 km/h), he dethroned the fastest player in the past season Kavontae Turpin who had set this record in a touchdown.

Hope to integrate a franchise
Very noticed for this dazzling acceleration, the son of Jean-Charles (former Sprint specialist athlete) hopes to be able to make a place in one of the 32 NFL teams, which can accommodate a maximum 53 elements. In December, Trouabal explained to us in this regard: “The next course, it will be to be in the fifty-three of an active squad. I will have to be in an optimal form. There, I push my limits. Every day, I think I progress. I am at a level that I had never reached, I think, in terms of speed, support. I hope it will gain power so that I can fart everything in March. In any case, I wake up every day with bananas. ”. Now all you have to do is cross your fingers.
