Chris Brooks (American football)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

American football player fails WP:NSPORTS for college athletes and there is no evidence that he ever played in an NFL game. This is a WP:Run-of-the-mill offensive lineman who did not receive non-routine coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. —Bagumba (talk) 09:04, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Confirmed that he never played a meaningful down in the NFL--doesn't come up in the NFL player database. Possible COI to boot--author is . Blueboy96 21:57, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment NFL.com deleted all of the bios of retired players, so even if this guy was notable, it wouldn't have come up.-- Giants27 ( T  |  C )  01:29, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
 * The statement about retired players bios not being on NFL.com is inaccurate. For example, Courtney Hall, an offensive lineman who last played in 1996 is still listed on NFL.com. A search at another reliable website, pro-football-reference.com, brings up a different Chris Brooks, Chris Brooks (wide receiver).  Chris Brooks, the offensive lineman and the subject of this AfD, has not played in the NFL, pain and simple. —Bagumba (talk) 06:21, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I stand corrected. I thought I had heard that they were all deleted, but I guess not. Nonetheless, I wasn't implying he's notable, since he isn't, haha.-- Giants27 ( T  |  C )  17:09, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
