Jammerson Irving was born in Jamaica, and the fact he is playing football at all, let alone professionally, is pretty incredible as he had never even played the sport until his junior year in high school. That story has been told before, but Jammerson's gaming taste might be even more unlikely, as he is an avid EA NHL fan and plays almost non-stop when he isn't working on his game on the field or in the gym.

Of course, due to his parents immigration to Canada while he was a minor, he has been surrounded by rabid hockey fans during his formative high school years, so the hulking Jamaican naturally picked up the game. Jammerson Irving has always had an addictive and competitive personality, and gaming was no different. He trains for competitive EA NHL as hard as he trains for the NSFL, and is actually a very accomplished online player. Jammerson has actually tried skating, and playing hockey, but after a few nasty spills he has decided to forego any actual hockey playing for the virtual version. It only makes sense.

Interestingly enough, Jammerson has only played Madden a handful of times and doesn't enjoy it. He has often tried to get the locker room to switch over, and has met stuanch resistance and has had little success. Hockey all the way.
