Sam Salz is an American football wide receiver for the Texas A&M Aggies. He is thought to be the only orthodox Jewish football player in NCAA Division I. Salz did not play organized football at any level prior to being added to the Texas A&M program as a walk-on. As he was not invited to join the football team, he practiced by himself within sight of them. He eventually earned a roster spot.
