I am a former American football defensive lineman who played twelve seasons in the National Football League (NFL). I played defensive end for the New York Giants for 10 seasons, then played as a defensive tackle for the New York Jets and Washington Redskins. I was also a starter on the Giants teams that won Super Bowl XXI and Super Bowl XXV.

I was drafted by the Giants in the second round out of Louisiana State University (LSU) in the 1983 NFL Draft. I was selected to the Pro Bowl for his performances in the 1985, 1986, and 1991 seasons.

I am currently a professor of Sports Management and Executive-in-Residence at Seton Hall University in South Orange, New Jersey.
