When people think of the early days of the ELF there's one player that has too be mentioned. He may not have been the biggest player in the league but the 175cm recevier and returner was one of the league's most electric players.

Jean Constant's three seasons for the Barcelona Dragons, Hamburg Sea Devils, and Milano Seamen took him to three different countries as he racked up 2,824 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns.

In 2021, Constant was the league's leading receiver with 1,080 yards and eight touchdowns as he and quarterback Zachary Edwards were all over the highlight reel week in and week out.

Constant was also a dangerous return man during his time in the ELF putting up 1,744 yards and a one score as a kick and punt returner. The speedy pass catcher left the ELF as the league's top receiver in career receiving yards, and currently sits second all time. 

The ELF's first season

Constant's 1,080 yards made him the league's top pass catcher as him and quarterback Zach Edwards were a dymanic duo feared around the league. 

"In my first year with the Barcelona Dragons, we had an incredible Week 8 game against the Cologne Centurions. The final score was 60-51, the highest combined score at the time. That game really stood out as one of the best memories for me."

Life after football

These days the former ELF All-Star works in tech back home in Florida. After a tough decsion to stay closer to home Constant has chosen to move on from the game and focus on new goals and priorities. 

"After my father passed away last year, I had to decide whether to continue playing overseas or stay closer to my family. I chose to stay home, as being near family felt like the right decision for my peace of mind. I hung up the cleats and am now living back home in Miami. I’m working for a software development company.

Constant continues to have a passion for the game passing on his knowledge to the younger generation:

 "I’m involved in personal training and mentorship for young athletes. I help them improve their skills and create new opportunities, whether locally or overseas."

Looking back at his ELF experience

Constant credits the ELF for helping develop himself both as a football player and as a man. The experience of living abroad and seeing new cultures is not one that is lost on him.

"Playing in the European League of Football has been life-changing. Saying “I played ball overseas and traveled to 10+ countries in Europe” is always a great conversation starter. I’ve made amazing friendships all around the world, which is something I never imagined a few years ago."

"I still follow the league closely. I’ve got friends like Zach Edwards, Glen Toonga, Remi Bertellin, Lewis Thomas and many others still out there, so I have to keep up with what’s happening."
