Taliese Fuaga

Personal Life

Taliese Fuaga has always put his family first. Staying near family in his hometown of Tacoma, Washington, played a big role in his recruitment and decision to play at Oregon State. It's also going to play a big role in his development on the next level. "I'm a family-oriented guy," Fuaga told NFL Network. "Everything about me is about family and respect. It's like that in the Polynesian culture. We love to show the respect and prioritize the family-first mindset. I think that's a big reason why I'm such a good teammate and will have a lot of success in the NFL." During his time at Oregon State, Fuaga earned first-team All-America and all-league honors.
