Jets D-lineman Jowon Briggs is a one-man band, a tenor who can tackle and play 12 instruments
New York Jets defensive tackle Jowon Briggs surprised his teammates earlier this season by singing a song during a special teams meeting. Known for his football skills, Briggs also has learned to play 12 instruments to varying degrees of competency, including piano, violin, and guitar. Many teammates were unaware of his musical abilities. Briggs grew up in a musical family in Cincinnati and developed his skills from a young age. He balanced music and sports throughout his education, even performing in choirs and a capella groups. While football remains his focus, Briggs enjoys music as a creative outlet.
