General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited:  
  • Interesting:  
QPQ: Done.

Overall:   Article is new enough (expanded on Dec. 11), long enough (about 2,800 bytes), and well-sourced. It appears to be free of close-paraphrasing or copyvios. The hook is interesting and verified. QPQ done. This looks just about good to go. The only possible problem I see is that the infobox lists "Pasco (WA)" as his high school but the article says it was Gonzaga HS. Did he attend both, or was it an error by Pro-Football-Reference that he attended Pasco? BTW this is my first DYK review, so let me know if I've done anything wrong.

  • @BeanieFan11: Thank you for the review and good catch. There is a discrepancy between the sources as to which high school he attended. From past experience in this area, I credit this contemporaneous source over this database source which is more prone to errors on small details like this. I have modified the text accordingly. As for other elements to be reviewed, the only thing I see that you missed is verifying that the hook is less than 200 characters. Cbl62 (talk) 22:51, 15 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
