300. Glenn Presnell
Out of the University of Nebraska, Glenn Presnell first played for the semi-pro Ironton Yanks in 1929. The Yanks were not part of the NFL but would have games against NFL teams where they would sometimes emerge as the victor. Presnell would sing with the NFL's Portsmouth Spartans, where he would be a bona fide triple threat in terms of passing, running and kicking and would be an All-Pro in 1933. Presnell would then join the Detroit Lions and was a key member of their 1935 Championship Team.
