Isaac Seumalo (born October 29, 1993) is an American football guard who is currently a free agent in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Oregon State.

High school career

A native of Corvallis, Oregon, Seumalo attended Corvallis High School, where he was an 5A First-team All-State as an offensive and defensive lineman as a junior and senior. He had transferred there from Santiam Christian School, where he played his freshman and sophomore years. Regarded as a four-star recruit by Rivals.com, Seumalo was listed as the No. 3 offensive guard prospect in his class.[1] He chose Oregon State, where his father Joe Seumalo worked as defensive line coach, over offers from Oregon, Stanford, and Southern California.[2] Seumalo had been working out in the summer on Oregon State's campus.[3]

College career

In his first season at Oregon State, Seumalo became the first true freshman to start at center since Roger Levasa in 1978,[4] appeared in all 13 games and earned Freshman All-American honors by College Football News and CBSSports.com,[5][6] as well as honorable mention All-Pac-12 honors. Seumalo was particularly praised for his performance against reigning Pac-12 Defensive Lineman of the Year Star Lotulelei, in a victory over the Utah Utes.[7][8]

On April 29, 2016, the Philadelphia Eagles selected Seumalo in the third round (79th overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft.[11] In 2017, Seumalo played in 14 games, however, he was benched as the starting left guard in favor of Stefan Wisniewski after a poor performance in a week 2 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He won his first Super Bowl ring when the Eagles defeated the New England Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl LII.[12]

In 2018, Seumalo entered the season as the backup left guard behind Stefen Wisniewski. He was named the starter in Week 5 and started the next nine games before being sidelined the final three weeks of the regular season with a pectoral injury.

On March 4, 2019, Seumalo signed a three-year contract extension with the Eagles through the 2022 season.[13]

On September 22, 2020, Seumalo was placed on injured reserve with a knee injury.[14] He was activated on November 20, 2020.[15]

On September 28, 2021, Seumalo was placed on injured reserve after suffering a Lisfranc injury in Week 3.[16]

On 21 December 2022, Seumalo was named an NFC Pro Bowl alternate.[17] Seumalo helped the Eagles reach Super Bowl LVII but lost 38-35 to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Seumalo's father Joe is currently[when?] the defensive line coach at San Jose State, while his sister Jessi is currently[when?] the director of on-campus recruiting for the Washington State football team.[18][19]
