  • I Decided to be WP:BOLD and fixed it. The defamatory version should probably be hidden. Zaxxon0 (talk) 00:17, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
  • Strong keep a college HOF player, NFL player is notable and this nom makes absolutely no sense. If there's a BLP vio it should be rd'd or OS'd. Why is this nom here? Praxidicae (talk) 01:51, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
  • Strong keep Recipient of two of the most prestigious awards in his sport, the Heisman Trophy and the Super Bowl MVP, as well as a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. If this sportsball player isn't notable then our notability criteria is seriously out of whack. CThomas3 (talk) 01:58, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
  • Keep: If I am sorry for this, I chose keep. CentralTime301 (talk) 14:13, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
No reason to be sorry: the original version had expletives and was obviously vandalism. But the subject is indeed very notable, and an acceptable version is now in place. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:56, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
