Long has neveractually played a professional game. He has bounced from practice squad to practice s1quad, but being on a practice squad is not a sign of notability.

Then you should take up the discussion at
Wikipedia talk:Notability (sports) rather than nominating articles for AFD. What you are doing is a violation of the behavior guideline
Wikipedia:Do not disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point which states "If consensus strongly disagrees with you even after you have made proper efforts, then respect the consensus, rather than trying to sway it with disruptive tactics." Consensus is abundantly clear on this issue. The behavior guideline also states "Such behavior, wherever it occurs, is highly disruptive and can lead to a block or ban." Please withdrawal the nomination and cease this disruptive approach. If you want to change
WP:NGRIDIRON then you should discuss it there, not by continuing to nominate articles for AFD in the hopes that others come to your point of view.--

WP:GRIDIRON. With the slightest grain of fairness to the nominator, the article did not clearly demonstrate this when it was nominated and now does thanks to work done by PaulMcDonald. The research is easily done, so there's no excuse for the nomination – but there's been a couple times where I've missed a SNG being passed at AfC because it wasn't obvious from either the article, the references in the article, or from a quick search.
