Happens all the time in football. Quentin jammer was a Cornerback. Cornerback jam receivers at the line of scrimmage. There was a wide receiver named Joey Goodspeed. A fullback named Mack Strong Who was there to knock people out of the way.

There’s a guy now in college named Moah Bility. His name is Mohammed but he goes by Mo. His name is….mobility. I think he’s a wide receiver.

football had a guy named Webster slaughter. Peerless price. A guy’s real name was Guy Whimper.


I feel like the entire basketball division of this discussion would be God Shamgod and that’s disappointing.

when you read that ridiculous list of football names doesn’t feel like there should be a Gunner Aimwell or something? Maybe a Mo Bounce or something.

I know football rosters are larger, so there are more people playing football at the top level in America, but theres way more total basketball players in the world and you don’t hear about any awesome names.

Who am I forgetting?

If Trae Young's name was spelt Trey, I feel this could fit your criteria?

There's Trey Burke, but was he a great 3 point shooter?

Vinny Del Negro. Del Negro means "of the black" in Spanish. He played for the Spurs for most of his career who of course, play in black.
