Defensive tackle for the Seattle Seahawks from 1990–2000 (his whole career) - he was not as famous considering his talent b/c he was a quiet guy on and off the field and Seattle was not very good for most of those years so he did not get as much exposure - he died on May 23, 2017, in Orlando, Florida; he was 48 years old; according to police, he was alone when he died
