This article has no references, and seems highly unlikely that any information in it is true. It also has a giant mass of cluttered, irrelevant text at the bottom. Saebjorn! 01:52, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems clearly notable under WP:ATHLETE. He competed at the highest professional level in his sport. If you click on the link in the infobox, it leads to his NFL profile page, so it seems clear that he's an actual retired player who played for those teams. The response to the gobbledygook at the bottom of the page is simply to delete that text, not delete the whole article. --JamesAM (talk) 03:48, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes WP:ATHLETE. It is easy to confirm all the the football-related information on google. If confirmation cannot be found for his philanthropy then those sentences can be removed. Gruntler (talk) 05:38, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep but delete post-football career comments about energy and education unless a reliable source can be provided. Jim Heaphy (talk) 05:54, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep. I've never heard of him, but he had a five year career with the NFL (per Google). End of story per WP:ATHLETE. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 23:05, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I'll use this nom as an example (no offense to the nominator) but the NFL.com link in the infobox, can be considered as the link to verify all the info. He played in the NFL thus he passes WP:ATH.-- Giants 27 ( c  |  s ) 01:50, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
