ASHBURN, Va. -- Not too long ago, Ty Nsekhe was making $150 a week playing Arena Football and running on hope.Now hes the starting left tackle for the Washington Redskins -- an opportunity afforded him after Pro Bowler Trent Williams suspension and years of patience. Nsekhe has four games to prove what he has always believed and tried to show during every tryout: he belongs in the NFL.I always knew in the back of my mind I was destined to be here, so something just stayed with me, Nsekhe said this week. I cant really tell you what it was, but I just knew I was going to be here. Im here.Nsekhes travels took him from Texas State to Tarleton State, a Division II school, and then to AF2, the Arena Football Leagues developmental program. At 6-foot-8, Nsekhes size garnered NFL attention, and he said Miami was about to sign him in 2011 when the lockout began.If the AFLs San Antonio Talons hadnt called in 2012, Nsekhe was content to continue operating his private security business. Reluctant to go back to banging up his body for $150 a week -- with a $50 bonus for a win -- he needed the Talons to match his salary.When they did, he was back in the game.I went down there, and the rest is history, Nsekhe said.Nsekhe had brief stays with the Indianapolis Colts, St. Louis Rams, New Orleans Saints and the Redskins, and he bounced to the Canadian Football League and back to the Arena League.After a career of catch and release, he signed with Washington in May 2015 at 29 and started two games in place of Williams last season.All I really wanted was to have the opportunity to become an NFL player, he said. I just wanted somebody to believe in me and give me a chance, and I appreciate that.That opportunity came from coach Jay Gruden and the Redskins, who believed Nsekhe had the size to play left tackle in the NFL but was very raw.Experienced offensive line coach Bill Callahan helped him develop his technique, with Williams and right tackle Morgan Moses also lending a hand in the learning process.Luckily, we had the opportunity to keep him here and let him develop in a system and learn the system, the calls, and just watch him progressively get better and better, Gruden said. And hes been a joy to watch, quite frankly.Right now Nsekhe isnt thinking about where he would be if football didnt work out -- though he often does. Right now, hes focused on starting for the Redskins.Just everything falling into place, he said. I dont know. Sometimes things happen for a reason, and you cant explain them sometimes.Williams suspension, imposed last week for violations of the NFLs substance abuse policy, allows Nsekhe to show what he can do for the Redskins -- and, as a restricted free agent once the season ends, perhaps for other teams looking for a capable tackle.Washington general manager Scot McCloughan has said Nsekhe can be a starter, and Nsekhe will have a chance to show that potential beginning with a game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.Gruden said little will change with the Redskins offense because he has faith in Nsekhes ability to fill in for Williams.Quarterback Kirk Cousins isnt worried, either, knowing Nsekhe will be protecting his blind side.Mentally, he really understands it and knows where to be and who to get on each protection and each play in the run game, Cousins said. Hes got a big frame and it really helps to have that size, and hes worked really hard.It hasnt been an easy path, but so many of these guys in an NFL locker room, they wouldnt be here if they had given up at the first sign of adversity. Tys a great example of someone who just kept pushing and kept going, and now, hes in a great position to be successful.Game notesGruden said an MRI on WR DeSean Jacksons left shoulder showed rotator cuff issues. Jackson missed practice for the second consecutive day, and his status for the Vikings game is uncertain. ... Gruden confirmed undrafted rookie Robert Kelley remains the starting running back and was noncommittal about the role of former No. 1 Matt Jones. ... Moses (sprained left ankle) and S Will Blackmon (broken left thumb) were limited participants in practice Thursday.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLCheapest Yeezy 350 Store .

Mardle believes Van Gerwen displayed a steely determination on the stage and has kick-started his campaign in style.I was sitting in the commentary box and normally me and Michael have a bit of a chat, but he just didnt want to know, Mardle told Sky Sports.He was completely focused and I said to Rod Studd: He could do a job here.He looked different, he looked like he wanted to put it right and funnily enough thats what he said.

He needs that confidence boost every single time.Hes not as mentally strong as he used to be and the others are slightly stronger, so thats why he goes on more now about James trying to speed him up - I knew what he was trying to do.When he plays like that, you cannot write the man off, its just impossible.
