Celebrities That Played In The NFL 

Terry crews is awesome such a funny guy and so is the rock both really nice people 👍

Burt Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson never played in the NFL, but Dwayne did briefly play in the CFL.

"Celebrities that played in the NFL" Me: You can't possibly name every single NFL player to ever exist

Imagine getting tackled by Terry Crews

It’s almost like Michael Strahan is a hall of famer

Thank you for this blessing of a video and can’t wait to finish it

You forgot to mention that Dwayne Johnson played briefly in the Canadian Football League for the Calgary Stampeders.

Merlin Olsen (little house on the prairie) LA Rams, 14 time in a row pro bowler, quarter of fearsome foursome, Legend

Oj Simpson 😂

This guy just wanted people to know that he watched The Longest Yard

Alex Karras, who was in the show Webster in the 80s, was a great player with the Lions in the 60s & 70s! Fred Dryer, also played in the 70s with the Rams & Giants.

Ed O’Neil was signed to the steelers but was cut during training camp.

Many of these celebrities never played in the NFL and you left out many who had: Alex Karras (Blazing Saddles), Jim Brown (Dirty Dozen), OJ Simpson (Naked Gun), Bubba Smith (Police Academy), Fred Dryer (Hunter), Carl Weathers (Rocky), Michael Strahan and several others who were celebrities outside sports.

Don't forget Carl Weathers (Apollo Creed in Rocky & some other parts in movies like Happy Gilmore) ... 2 seasons with the Raiders and a few in the CFL.

Brock Lesnar played on the Vikings

Rock also played for calgary stampeders in cfl

Basically play for the rams and retire boom instant celeb

Is everyone that was on this list in the movie the longest yard

2 member of the Rams Fearsome Foursome defense of the 70's, Fred Dryer and Merlin Olsen had pretty big tv careers. Fred was the star of Hunter tv series and Merlin was in Father Murphy.

This is soooooo good

Bubba Smith is my favorite nfl player to hit stardom in a different outlet. Hightower from the Police Academy movies has always been a favorite of us 80’s kids.

less than half of them played in the NFL

I don't think he counts as a celebrity, but I'm old enough to remember Jack Kemp, a former politician that ran for VP of United States when Bob Dole was the Republican candidate in '96. I'm young to know (late 30s) his career in the NFL, but I just remember that fact.

is it just me or were all these guys in the longest yard😂

I learned a lot!

Terry crews was a security guard for Ice cude before getting the role in Friday after next..

You forgot Carl Weathers brah.

The rock played for the Calgary stampeders in the cfl

Can you smell what the rock is cooking 3:16

Seems to name more guys that almost went to the NFL. You missed guys like Merlin Olsen, Carl Weathers, Ed Marinaro.

Merlin Olson, Fred Dryer, Tim Roosovich. Lyle Alzado, Terry Bradshaw, OJ to name but a few.

That’s nice

So basically the longest yard cast

Brock lesnar was also in the nfl shoulda made this list

That instrumental is fresh

Brian Bosworth, Bo Jackson, Jim Brown, Oj

bill goldberg played as coach mellors brother in the show “The Goldbergs”

"Friday after THE next" huh??🤣🤣🤣 dope content tho

Suge Knight played in the NFL!

You know it's a legit Steve Austin quote when it starts with "I tell you what"

I recall that the Rock did a short stint up in the CFL with Calgary.

Nice

Rock also played a bit on the calgary stampeders in the cfl

Lmfao was everyone in this vid in the longest yard 😂💀

Kevin Hart was in the NFL he played for the GIANTS

Longest yard is a great movie!!

Goldberg: "I was smaller" Me: 😮

DeWayne was a member of the Bermuda triangle defence with the Miami Hurricanes the Hurricane defence players called themselves the Bermuda triangle one of if not the best defence team we ever had. Also Burt Reynolds played his highschool football in West Palm beach FL for the twin lakes high rams that school was relocated north west of its original location and was changed to Palm beach lakes high. The original location of then twin lakes highschool is the location of the Kravise center for performing arts in West Palm beach FL. As a palm beach county native Burt Reynolds was my favorite actor. Burt used several Palm beach county Florida locations in his movies including in the longest yard where in that movie he is from Palm beach county.

Steve Austin was in longest yard too

Friday after “the” next!!! 😂

Former Fresno mayor Alan Autry was a Green Bay Packer.

If you do a College Football version of this video, in Mark Harmon’s first game as starting Quarterback for UCLA in 1972, they beat 2-time defending National Champion NEBRASKA!

I could have made it to the NFL. I HAD IT ALL coming out of high school. Speed, strength, work ethic...the only thing I was missing was size. I was only 5'7" and 165 lbs. That and one other thing...talent. lol

"Hello Twitter world!" 😂😂😂

Alan Autry (bubba) from in the heat of the night played for greenbay

A lot of actors that couldn't make it to the NFL ended up playing in some movie about football. The Rock also did that Gridiron movie.

Ok good vid ok I love it u now can be happy

Man, seeing linemen at college is frightening. As a 6'2'' dude, those guys would rip me a new one.

I heard the famous podcasters Jason and Travis Kelce played in the nfl too

"Celebrities that played in the NFL" then list a bunch that didn't...

Baron Corbin played for the Colts and signed a contract with the Cardinals

Damnnn Warren Sapp cold 😂

You forgot Ed O'Niell, You know "AL Bundy" He played for Ohio and went on to sign with the Steelers but was cut during camp. But that's still one camp more in the NFL than the Rock !

Good video 🏈 football

What's the beat playing during the Goldberg segment?

"The Hammer" Fred Williamson

Like all the people were in the longest field that’s one of my favorite movie

From my time in the army I need both hands to count how many times I've heard someone say they would of went pro if not for a injury.

I apologize if I’m repeating one, didn’t take time to read all comments. Fred “the hammer” Williamson played in the first superbowl. Let’s also remember Bubba Smith.

Fred Dryer !!!

Dwayne did play professional football for the Calgary stampede of the CFL

Gerald Ford played when the Rams began in L.A. (1944)

Ed Marinaro, Look it up.

The Rock Dwayne Johnson was so good that the NFL told him "we're not worthy for your presence, so we're going to have to cut you"

Idk what position to play in football because im fast at running so should i be a wide receiver or a running back

Oh yeah, Carl Weathers.

Larry Brown co-starred with his brother Charlie, in "the Great Pumpkin".....

Leaving out the Medicare commercials, Joe Namath has done a lot of acting. C.C and Company with Ann-Margaret. A commercial for shaving with a, at that time unknown Farrah Fawcett.
