Jordan Kovacs
Jordan David Kovacs (born June 12, 1990) is an American football safety for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League (NFL). He was signed by the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2013. He played college football at Michigan. Kovacs has also been a member of the Philadelphia Eagles.
He was a walk-on who earned 2009 CollegeFootballNews.com Freshman All-America second team recognition and 2009 ''Sporting News'' Freshman All-Big Ten honors for the 2009 Wolverines while being the second-leading tackler on the team. Granted a scholarship by the 2010 team for his second year, he was the second-leading tackler in the Big Ten Conference and was selected as a 2010 All-Conference honorable mention. He was also a 2011 All-Big Ten honorable mention for the 2011 team. He served the 2012 team as captain and was also a 2012 All-Big Ten second team selection and a 2012 Academic All-Big Ten honoree.
==Background==
Kovacs, a Hungarian American, attended Clay High School, which is the rival high school of former Wolverine teammate Kevin Koger.〔 In high school, he earned varsity letters in basketball as a sophomore and junior. He also earned All-City recognition in track and field three times (first team as a senior, second team as a junior and honorable mention as a sophomore) and was a four-year letterman. He qualified for the Ohio State championships in the 4x400 meter relay. He was a three-year letterman in football, where he earned All-Ohio academic honors and All-district honors as both a wide receiver and defensive back.〔
He was not recruited by any Division I schools as a high school football player, but he was recruited by some Division II schools. Kovacs only had two campus visits: Division II Hillsdale and Toledo (a school 13 miles from his high school).〔 By the time he completed his college applications, even Hillsdale had lost interest in him.〔 His father placed a call to Michigan Director of Football Operations Brad Labadie after Jordan was wait listed and got him to agree to review a homemade highlight reel.〔 As his graduation neared, Kovacs shook hands with Andy Boyd, a Toledo coach, on a preferred walk-on spot.〔 That same afternoon in June 2008, Labadie called to confirm that Kovacs had been admitted from the wait list.〔 The admission came without an athletic scholarship.〔 Labadie encouraged Jordan to attend walk-on tryouts.〔
