Why Kenny Easley ranks #157 in American Football
Kenny Easley ranks 157th among American Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 1648th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 94, Longevity 62, Honours 82, Statistics 88. Those categories are normalised against the full American Football reference universe of 381 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1981–1987 with 7 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1984, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes defensive player of the year awards 1, career interceptions 32, pro bowls 5, first-team all-pro selections 3.
Immediately ahead sits Tony Boselli on 81.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Ben Roethlisberger on 81.7. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
