Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. One reference to an NFL weblink which has no statistics. Lacks WP:SIGCOV. Geoff | ^{Who, me?} 23:14, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, someone with over 100 rushing yards in the NFL, clearly notable. Extensive coverage on newspapers.com, e.g. [1] and [2], receiving a bunch of sigcov just in the past few days due to his death, e.g. [3]. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:21, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Passes GNG. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 23:36, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Passes the WP:GNG with the sources provided, although it should be noted that there is no notability criteria based on statistics in games. Let'srun (talk) 04:32, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - per GNG. Doesn't seem like WP:BEFORE was done. Rlendog (talk) 14:47, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
