61. Mike Kenn

The Atlanta Falcons have had many ups and downs over the years. With a seventeen-year career playing in the ATL, Mike Kenn has seen it all.

Mike Kenn holds the Falcons record for the most games played and started. He patrolled the Offensive Line, primarily from the Left Tackle position during his time there and netted himself five consecutive Pro Bowl appearances and a pair of All-Pro Selections. Arguably best as a run-blocker, Kenn's immense height (6' 7") gave him superior field vision, yet astoundingly did not impact his center of gravity (at least visually), and he was rarely bested. Starting all 251 Games with the Falcons, Kenn might be the most durable player in franchise history and can stake a claim as the greatest lineman Atlanta ever saw. He may never reach Canton, but the Falcons retired his number.
