Jimmy Pruitt

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:NCOLLATH and WP:NGRIDIRON, because of no national awards or regular season NFL game action.

The only news coverage cited here and found elsewhere is WP:ROUTINE for an under-the-radar college football player who got an NFL free agent contract, such as this feature article in the local newspaper during his college career, as well as news articles about signing, getting injured, and being released from the New Orleans Saints.

Two other AfDs of San Jose State football players De'Leon Eskridge and Chandler Jones concluded with similar results. Arbor to SJ (talk) 06:19, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable football player. He fails to meet WP:GNG, WP:NGRIDIRON, and WP:NCOLLATH.  Some routine sports reporting is insufficient to show notability. Papaursa (talk) 15:33, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as the article is presented, it seems there is no notability to the career at this point. It's possible that he could have achieved notability through college play, but I see no indication of that.  Instead, it looks like a promotional page for someone attempting to make it in the NFL instead of an encyclopedia article.--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:29, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. As the nominator states, Pruitt does not pass WP:NCOLLATH or WP:NGRIDIRON both of which are inclusionary rather than exclusionary standards. The nomination overlooks WP:GNG, but I am not finding significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources of the type needed to satisfy GNG. Cbl62 (talk) 21:28, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
