Kicking off the list is the New York Jets DT Damon Harrison, weighing in at 350lbs, who wasn't even too interested in the NFL to begin with. He became the first member in his family to graduate from High School, and after being offered a football scholarship, his aim was still just to get a good degree. While studying at William Penn in Iowa, he weighed around 360lbs and played basketball, before lining up in the football team for his final year. He went undrafted, but the Jets signed him soon afterwards.
