General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: No - The hook is sourced to a primary source stats database. Is there a non-DB source for this? Otherwise, I'm not sure if we want hooks based on stats DB dips and creating WP's version of ESPN Stats.
QPQ: Done.

  • @Bagumba: There's this source: If Collier does make the NFL, he would be only the third Bald Eagle ever to do so. The other two being Bret Shugarts and John Eisenhooth, both in 1987. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:46, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
    @BeanieFan11: Adding that source would seem to be sufficient for approval.—Bagumba (talk) 06:44, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
    @Bagumba: Updated. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:00, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
