NFL Players That DIDN'T GO TO COLLEGE

[@KTOfootball]

Here is the video that I reference in the outro: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4uui6B7f89oqKc

[@HydraMann]

My favorite example is Jordan Mailata, not only did he not play college football, he had never played football before the NFL

[@MrDoodle257]

and became the best left tackle in the NFL. Insane story.

[@MrBcardinal35]

​@@PhilMcKraken05so you're saying they should both have 2 part videos

[@TheTEN24]

I feel so bad for Banks, it’s so infuriating that false accusers don’t get punished equally and sent to jail ruining others lives. I’m glad he at least got an opportunity later on. This is an awesome video

[@phillyphillyon2]

yup. that’s why the “always believe the victim” shit is stupid because it goes against the “innocent until proven guilty” bs the justice system spews. its more guilty until proven innocent. thats why it takes so long for people to get trials which goes against the constitution of a “quick and soeedy trial”

[@dictatorofcanada4238]

The problem is, if false accusers were hit with the harsh punishments they might deserve, they would never admit it, and Brian Banks could still be in prison.

[@DuecePiece]

​@dictatorofcanada4238 Investigators should have just done a better job, and she should absolutely have to do as much time as he did, at the least. Eye for an eye

[@dantemagliari1073]

@@dictatorofcanada4238yeah but the flip side of that coin is that they most likely never would have taken that chance if they knew they could be the one’s spending the rest of his life in the slammer and not the person who’s life they were trying to ruin.

Man I gotta say as a longgg time viewer ever since I was in 8th grade to now just starting my third year in college I gotta say the value of your videos have only gone up and up overtime. I really love the new editing styles you’ve recently implemented into your content too, keep up the amazing work.

[@myaumessful]

I have known Robert Chancey for a while. In my opinion there is no better person I know that deserved it. He is a great guy. Thanks for including him. I just so happened to see the video not long after you posted it and had no idea he would be on it. Thanks KTO

[@Quasi_Terrible]

I was thinking the #1 guy would be Night Train, but apparently he played 1 year of junior college football, so I guess he missed that criteria. But his story IS the definitive example of a walk on to an NFL roster. And even today is the best Cornerback to ever play the game.

[@TheMidnightGhostg0000]

Could be him or the Nigerian Nightmare and what he did

[@thepolarphantasm2319]

I'm pretty sure if a modern NFL referee saw a single clip of Night Train Lane hitting a receiver they would explode into a cloud of yellow flags

[@theedeeone]

@@TheMidnightGhostg0000 Chris Okoye went to college tho, he played D2 football at Azusa Pacific in CA, they dont have football anymore though, cancelled it a few seasons ago

[@adamkratz5291]

Antonio Gates. Played basketball in college, not football, and became arguably the best TE ever

[@milliesboy666]

I was thinking night train too. He just showed up at the rams practice and said he was there to play football

[@allanm9190]

8:51, would be cool if KTO did a video of NFL/football players who went into pro wrestling or were pro wrestlers before playing football!

[@martymcnasty8239]

Goldberg, the Rock, Roman Reigns, Brock Leaner ect... That would be an awesome video

[@OhyeahMrKrabz]

Been watching KTO since 2017 his videos have been great

[@YaboiEsten]

KTO putting in that work 🤝🏾

[@sacredfire536]

btw Joe Horn, as a Saints fan, his story is so amazing and hes one of my favorite players and in fact one of the best Saints players ever in our franchise. dude was a fkin TRUCK driver and honestly he should be inducted into the hall of fame for his story, what he gave us, and his stats being way, way above average. he gave us so much hope and lead us into the drew brees and marques colson era and he was such a special platyer and personality. a bit of a diva but nothing like keyshon johnson or terrel owens.

11:36 that photo isn’t of Ray Seals. That’s Jonny Gammage,Seals’ Cousin, who was killed by police officers kneeling on his neck during a 1995 traffic stop. He was driving Seals’ car which police thought he stole.

[@JetsetComedian]

Bet that player you make the video on is former 1st round DT Eric Swann from the early 90s! 🎉

[@jackteed1388]

You not going to mention Eric Swann? Guy played semi pro ball out of high school and got drafted 6th overall and made 2 pro bowls.

[@jjmisiewicz7342]

That might be who he's referencing at the end

love that you've kept the same outro style ever since your beginning. With that song, the final clip with audio and everything. Awesome bro

[@thefreshgingerTTV]

A deep dive into the players who didn’t play football until late like Antonio gates with playing bball in college or other players who thought they were so good they could wait 3 years. Idk how to describe those typa players but it would be neat to see from u

[@waverunner6497]

He was going to do both football and basketball at Michigan State, but either Izzo or Saban wouldn't let him. Then, you transferred to Eastern Michigan and played basketball in 2000 and was going to do both football and basketball for the 2000-2001 school year, but they let the basketball coach go at the end of the 99-2000 basketball season.

As a rugby fan, even if it’s the wrong type of rugby, I so wanted Hayne to do well so that my fellow Americans might respect the sport I love so much

[@PhlyingPhil]

The non-success of (at least) international rugby players going for nfl positions is possibly down to being a "superstar rugby man" on the backend of rugby career to a "nobody with potential" vying for attention against younger athletes. Mailata was different, he was never a rugby star, never had a rugby career. He had nothing to lose and everything to gain by putting in some hard work.

[@Foxx488]

The thumbnail confused me. Why would KTO release a video on professional bowlers? This guy must be REALLY good.

[@ljessecusterl]

I was lucky enough to meet Michael Lewis and Mike McKenzie after a golf tournament in MS. Mr. Lewis is probably one of the funniest men I've ever met. Super nice guy. Same with Mike McKenzie. Everyone else in my store was too intimidated to talk to them and I just shot the shit with both of them for the half hour they were there. The legend about Michael Lewis is that the coaching staff was trying to get Haslett to leave his office to watch Lewis do some timed 40s. They didn't have any cleats in his size, so he was doing them barefoot on the Saints' practice field. He supposedly ran a 4.28 while Haslett watched from his office and Haslett brought him up and offered him a roster spot immediately.

[@_Maelgon_]

Women that falsely accuse men need to spend time in prison. They walk off scot free 99.9% of the time. What the fuck.
