One of the longest tenured players in NFL history (22 seasons), his career in that league began after going undrafted in 1983 and playing all three seasons of the USFL. Landeta was chosen for the All-USFL Team, and he would join the New York Giants in 1985, where he would win two Super Bowls, and was named to two Pro Bowls, and three First Team All-Pro rosters. After the Giants, he would play for the Los Angeles Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles, and is one of the few players to be named to two All-Decade Teams (80s & 90s).
