I want to know who they are and how their religion and beliefs comply with the sports they play.
A plus would be giving me web sites where I can see their accomplishments on the field.
Thanks.

Reggie White, of the Green Bay Packers was an ordained minister. However he passed away on the morning of December 26, 2004. At the time of his retirement, White was the NFL's all-time sacks leader with 198. He has since been surpassed by Bruce Smith who has 200. White was also caught in the middle of the arson scares at predominantly African American churches during the mid-1990s. The Inner City Church in Knoxville, Tennessee, a church where White was an associate minister, was burned to the ground in 1996. I'm sure there are others, but right now none come to mind.

What a great question!
Too often the sports stars are tied up in all the wrong things. I would love to see more about Godly athletes.

Current NFL personnel that come to mind:
Troy Polamalu, Pittsburgh Steelers
He prays between every defensive series on the Sidelines.
Devoutly religious man, though he resists labels such as protestant or catholic.
