Why Kevin Greene ranks #56 in American Football
Kevin Greene ranks 56th among American Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 1627th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 88.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 94, Longevity 88, Honours 84, Statistics 94. Those categories are normalised against the full American Football reference universe of 340 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1985–1999 with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1995, 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 career sacks 160, pro bowls 5, seasons with 10 or more sacks 10, forced fumbles 26.
Immediately ahead sits Chris Doleman on 88.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Drew Brees on 88.6. 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.
