Young quarterback Benjamin Anderson tried to make it to the NFL as a free agent this past spring, but it just didn't work out.
A few months later, he is under center taking snaps in the cozy city of Sagamihara, Kanagawa Prefecture.
Anderson, a 23-year-old product of the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (or UAPB), didn't know football was even played in Japan before being acquired by the X League's Nojima Sagamihara Rise over the summer.
