There have been some really BIG offensive and defensive linemen in the NFL over the years. But none of them have been as big as John Krahn, a senior at King High School in Riverside, Calif. He is, without a doubt, the largest football player we have ever seen.
Max Prepsjust published a feature on him and, to help put his size into perspective, they pointed out that Krahn is "roughly the same size as WWE superstar Big Show." He is 7-foot-tall and weighs approximately 440 pounds, which means most opposing teams need to use two players to neutralize him. The only problem? Krahn is actually so big that most college coaches have told him that, if he wants to play at the next level, he's going to need to lose weight. It's why he's currently on a 3,000-calorie diet that he's hoping will help him to, er, slim down.
OK, we think we've talked enough here. To truly experience how big this guy is, you need to check out his mind-blowing highlights. You can see them in the video above.
