Connor McGovern is 'going back home' to center on Bills' offensive line. Here's why that matters
‘“It’s hard to believe but I was actually undersized in high school,” said McGovern. “So I was always the center because I was usually the smallest one. Then once I hit my growth spurt finally, I just stayed at center. I went to Penn State as a center. Moved to guard then went back to center. It was always something natural. I always liked being the guy right in the middle. It was always comfortable to me.”’

Every day I always question that. Not in a negative way, but in a way I’m like, man, I made it. I shouldn’t be here. Everybody knows I shouldn’t be here because of what I went through in my life. But I’m here.”’
