Damn RIP. These gigantic dudes don’t seem to live long lives unfortunately. I wonder what the average lifespan is for former NFL linemen.

Yeah I mean, he weighed like 350 coming out of college. Can't imagine it got much better

He left in free agency for New Orleans the same offseason we traded for Willie Roaf from New Orleans.
That's all I remember about him. Couldn't even tell you if he was good. |

Definitely, 49 is just too young these days
But as Kiimo alluded to, he was 350 as a youth and maybe it just didn't get any better from there... probably why we're starting to see more and more big men make a conscious decision to slim down after retirement A heart can wear out quick trying to keep that much mass alive Last edited by Easy 6; 04-30-2024 at 05:20 PM.. |

I would've bet anything that he was a Marty guy back during the conservative Marty running heyday. I guess he was a Marty guy since he got drafted by Marty, but he only played one year for him. He ended up being more of a Gunther guy.

When Krispy Kreme first came to KC, the company I worked for at the time was doing some promotional work for them. I was talking with the franchise owner and he mentioned that Chiefs players would come in frequently. Then he told me about how Victor Riley would order a dozen glazed donuts, stack them on top of each other and smash them down into one donut that he would eat right there.
