Detroit has produced more active NFL players than any other city

Those 19 players include some pretty big names, from 14-year vet Brandon Graham of the Eagles to reigning Defensive Rookie of the Year Sauce Gardner of the Jets.

Hard times make hard men.
 
Do that table by population to get per capita and probably get a lot cooler findings. Some small town that produces one NFL player would rise to the top.

My lone ex NFL friend makes his “hometown” .2% former professional athletes.

Detroit is only like 600K now though. And Rob’s list isn’t any of the suburban or private school kids who all prolly say they’re from Detroit if talking to someone in another state.
