10 Heaviest NFL Players Of All Time

4. William "The Refrigerator" Perry - 382lbs (27st 4lbs)

Now we come to a true legend of the game, William Perry, affectionately known as 'The Refrigerator', who was adored by the Chicago Bears fans during his eight year spell in the Windy City. Perry was bullied at school as he weighed around 200lbs by the age of 11, but he soon let his athleticism do the talking as a college football star for the Clemson Tigers, while he could also pull off 360 degree basketball dunks, and run the 100-yard dash at 11.00 seconds flat. Sadly, Perry's fortune withered, and he faced a fight to keep his home, while his health problems and alcohol addiction grew. In 2011, his Super Bowl ring was spotted in a restaurant by an 11-year-old boy who convinced his mother to purchase it for $8,500, before giving the ring back to its rightful owner.
