Comment. Not taking a position at this time, but there is some significant coverage, e.g., this 2-full page article. Other examples include this, this, this, this. Cbl62 (talk) 03:48, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment that Boston Globe article looks pretty good--I agree, I want to give this article a chance.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:01, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The subject is notable for being a high school athlete who then went on compete for a job in the NFL with a team who took a chance on him. The fact that the subject did not play does not diminish the notability. The subject does not passWP:NGRIDIRON however the subject has more than trivial coverage about his extreme long shot....from the stands to the field. passes WP:GNG WP:NOTPAPER Tonereport (☎)(My Work) 00:15, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The Globe article is interesting, and if there's other coverage of his collegiate career I'd be interested to see it, but this basically otherwise is functionally a WP:BLP1E: a local player who got coverage since he got a tryout with the local team he supported since he was a kid, and then got cut. The Allentown article is about high school coverage of player and doesn't count. Would not have received a similar level of coverage had he not tried out for his local team. Fails WP:NGRIDIRON, WP:NCOLLATH. SportingFlyer T·C 02:52, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:NGRIDIRON due to possessing only WP:ROUTINE coverage and not having played in a major league game. Newshunter12 (talk) 01:57, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as above. Looks a lot like this one. Masum Reza^📞 06:18, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
