Olsen Pierre (born August 27, 1991) is an American former professional football player who was a defensive end in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Miami Hurricanes.
Pierre grew up in Rahway, New Jersey, and attended Rahway High School. He was a New York Giants fan during the height of Osi Umenyiora and the beginning of Jason Pierre-Paul’s pass-rushing careers. He admired the “go-getter” approach of Umenyiora, while Jason Pierre Paul like himself, are of Haitian descent which was also impressionable for him early on while pursuing a career in football.[1]
College career
Pierre started 36 of 40 games played at Miami (FL), notching 96 tackles, nine tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery and six passes defensed.
