Haha. In the 30 for 30, it shows that Okoye still gets asked about that play, and he still gets irked by it. LOL.

The only other player that I can think of that will have one play define their career like that is Rahim Moore. Right now nobody can think the name Okoye without that play against Atwater coming to mind. It is the same for me with Moore. Last year the way he started out with the couple of interceptions I thought maybe he would break through and help us to forget about it but then he went back to the same old Rahim of just playing so deep that 95% of all plays you don't even see him.

Jack Tatum - the original "assassin" paralyzed Darryl Stingley with one hit in the late 70s.

Not many - that's for sure.
