Does not meet WP:GNG, WP:NGRIDIRON. He had a decent college career, and is currently signed to the Bengals but does not appear to have actually played in a game. Coverage does not rise above the routine. Previously approved out of the new pages queue by Lapablo, who has since been blocked for approving articles for pay. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 21:59, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete does not appear to have attracted the requisite secondary coverage required for WP:GNG. SportingFlyer T·C 22:08, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Subject has not been added to https://www.rotoworld.com/sports/nfl/football other sources are not independent, there are his colledge and team websites. Australianblackbelt (talk) 23:19, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. College long snappers rarely pass muster, and this one appears to be no exception. The sources cited in the article are not independent (published by IU or Cincinnati Bengals) and/or do not constitute significant coverage. My searches also failed to come up with significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Accordingly, fails WP:GNG. Also no accomplishments that would warrant a presumption of notability under WP:NGRIDIRON (no NFL regular season games played) or WP:NCOLLATH. Cbl62 (talk) 00:40, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:GNG, WP:NGRIDIRON, and WP:NCOLLATH, per all above. Ejgreen77 (talk) 07:48, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per all of the above Spiderone 15:14, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete deep respect from me for being a long snapper in college, but that position rarely generates anything close to passing WP:GNG and I'm not able to find any. Having not played professionally at this time, I do not see an avenue to notability. Perhaps an enthusiastic editor may try another wiki such as an online sports almanac.--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:05, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
