ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — The move from the St. Louis Rams to the Washington Redskins has brought some new additions to Oshiomogho Atogwe’s Incredible Hulk collection.

The veteran safety has a dozen or so green Hulk figurines that take up much of the shelf space in his locker. There’s also a drawing made by Atogwe’s wife that depicts the Atogwe as the notorious comic book character fending off symbols of all three of the Redskins’ NFC East rivals.

Atogwe faces his old team Sunday when the Redskins visit the Rams. He says he has no hard feelings as he makes his return — he even gave comic book-related parting gifts to his teammates before leaving to sign as a free agent with the Redskins.
