I wonder if they could take those sumos and teach them some OL techniques kinda like they trained those Indian Cricket guys to be baseball pitchers


No kidding.
Do Sumo Wrestlers get paid so much in Japan that it isn't worth trying football ?
Or do Sumo Wrestlers not have the stamina to do that for the duration of an NFL game ?

This. Plus he was receiving a bull rush from a smaller edge defender. Micah is a freak, but he's not exactly taking on Richard Seymour in his prime.

I need to see Parsons do this exact thing in the same setting to an average NFL O-lineman to see the comparison

No. While sumo wrestlers are famous in japan, their salary is nothing compared to American pro sports. Hell, the average Japanese baseball and basketball player make more than the highest paid sumo wrestlers
