Only Mike Kenn played more Games (251) than Jeff Van Note (246) with the Atlanta Falcons, and for nine years, they played on the Offensive Line together.  Van Note played center after being drafted in the 11th Round of the 1969 Draft, and over his 18-year career (all with Atlanta), he missed only four games due to injury.  

He was never a First Team All-Pro but was a Second Team Selection twice, with six Pro Bowl Selections sprinkled in.  After his career, he would broadcast the Falcons and the University of Kentucky Games.
