Is there an NFL TE that has a nickname?
IS there or was there......

Jeremy Shockey – Shock Man
Leonard Pope – Champ
David Casper – Ghost


Mark Bavaro – Rambo – as a rookie
Keith Miller – Big Money prior to his NFL career

Rambo and Ghost are the only ones I remember. And Bavaro looked just like Rambo.

Shockey was actually called shock man? Never heard that before.

Not really a nickname since just about everyone named Gonzalez is frequently called Gonzo.

I only TE I can remember with a nickname is Shannon Sharpe... which was horse face. Though, no one would dare call him that to his face.

If you think about it, players that came from the U never really had nicknames. I can't think of any prominent names out of the program in the NFL with a legitimate nickname. They typically go by their first and last time.

Horse face? LMMFAO!!!

I thought Irvin had one, but since I can't remember it it probably wasn't a good one.

The only thing gheyer than nicknames is fan smack.

Its repetitive drivel and besides, everyone already knows it so why continue to state the obvious.
