does not meet WP:GRIDIRON, WP:NCOLLATH or WP:GNG John from Idegon (talk) 04:36, 13 May 2015 (UTC) If Jean were to make the Patriots' final 53 man roster in August, will he then be considered notable enough to have an article (he just went undrafted and is currently on the 90 man roster)? I am new to editing Wikipedia so I am unaware of how notable a player must be. Thanks. DataManiac18 (talk) 11:47, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment - No, professional football players are not presumed to be notable until they have played in one regular season game in the NFL, CFL or other major American football league under the specific notability guideline for professional football players per WP:NGRIDIRON.  He might still be notable as a college football player under the specific notability guideline for college athletes per WP:NCOLLATH or the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG.

 * Delete: Too soon, as it were. The claims for notability within the article are from the UAB playing days, where he got three interceptions in twenty-four games. Those aren't outstanding numbers for a cornerback in college. I suspect that an NFL completist was at work with this article and jumped the gun. Hithladaeus (talk) 18:43, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Not played in NFL yet, and as an undrafted free agent he won't necessarily do it anytime soon. Fails WP:GNG and WP:GRIDIRON. Joseph2302 (talk) 18:46, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - Subject does not satisfy the specific notability guidelines for college athletes per WP:NCOLLATH or professional football players per WP:NGRIDIRON, or the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG. It's quite possible that subject will play in one or more NFL games in September or October of 2015; closing administrator should be prepared to userfy this article on request.

 * Delete. Does not, as of now, appear to pass any of the pertinent guidelines in WP:NGRIDIRON, WP:NCOLLATH or WP:GNG. Cbl62 (talk) 15:38, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
