Theodore Washington Jr. (born April 13, 1968) is an American former professional football player who was a nose tackle in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Louisville Cardinals and was selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the first round of the 1991 NFL draft. He also played for the Denver Broncos, Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, New England Patriots, Oakland Raiders, and Cleveland Browns before retiring after the 2007 season. Washington was selected to four Pro Bowls in his career [1] and with the Patriots, he won Super Bowl XXXVIII over the Carolina Panthers.[2] At 6'5" and more than 375 pounds in his prime, he was described as "the prototypical [3-4] nose tackle of this era."[3] His gargantuan frame earned him nicknames like "Mt. Washington" or "Washington Monument".[4] Also notable for his longevity, Washington was a starting nose tackle, one of the most physically demanding positions in football, until the age of 39.[3][5]
