John Randle
John Randle, the defensive tackle for the Vikings and Seahawks, was impossible to block – and impossible to keep quiet. A non-stop screamer and yapper on the field, Randle – who wore the face paint of a warrior under his helmet – was strange, entertaining, and funny when mic’d up. He crawled on his hands and knees, yelled things to no one in particular such as “Regulators, mount up! We’re comin’!” and told referees he wanted to hang out and go fishing with them. But whatever came from Randle’s mouth, his play talked plenty: He was an All-Pro in six consecutive seasons in the 1990s, finished with at least 10 sacks in 8 straight seasons, and totaled 137.5 sacks in his career. Randle, who practiced as hard as he played and was as enthusiastic and talkative in everyday life as he acted on the field, had once been deemed too small for the NFL at 6-foot-1, 290-pounds. But he worked his way from undrafted rookie out of Texas A&M-Kingsville to 2010 inductee into the Hall of Fame.
