Redirect to ~~List of players who appeared in only one game in the NFL (1920–1929)#1925~~ 1925 Chicago Cardinals–Milwaukee Badgers scandal. No WP:SIGCOV found. He appeared in one NFL game while still in high school and lost his eligibility as a result. See here, here. Not enough to build a full encyclopedic biography around. The proposed redirect list provides the same basic information as is currently found in the existing sub-stub. A redirect is a reasonable alternative to deletion and allows for re-creation if and when someone finds SIGCOV and expands the article. Cbl62 (talk) 13:39, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Here is a 2015 New York Times article on the game in question which seems to have been a bit of a scandal. Is it possible that the scandal involving the game he played in is notable and thus a better redirect target? Alvaldi (talk) 15:08, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently it is notable - 1925 Chicago Cardinals–Milwaukee Badgers scandal. Alvaldi (talk) 15:13, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. That's a more apt redirect. Cbl62 (talk) 15:58, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
