Delete. Sources suggest no notability as a collegian and run-of-the-mill coverage for an undrafted free agent. He's also unlikely to make the roster, since he's not even listed on the current depth chart, even though it goes four deep at wide receiver. Barring some injuries, he's unlikely even to make the practice squad, much less make the game day roster and appear in a game as required to meet NSPORT. cmadler (talk) 19:14, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WP:Run-of-the-mill college player without notable accomplishments noted on college bio or draft profile. Doesnt appear to have significant coverage. In the worst case, WP:GNG allows that "Editors may reach a consensus that although a topic meets this criterion, it is not appropriate for a stand-alone article." This ROTM player would be that case.—Bagumba (talk) 22:29, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete College football players qualify under WP:GNG if they have been the subject of significant, non-trivial coverage in the mainstream media. After a diligent search, I'm not seeing such coverage. The articles cited in the article appear to contain passing references to him. Not enough to show notability about Clay as an individual. Cbl62 (talk) 02:12, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
