- As a lifelong Lions fan due to watching Barry play in my formative years, I'm happy to review this. The article is new enough, long enough, and well sourced. Tone is neutral, Earwig is clean, and a spot check showed no issues. QPQ not needed. The hook is interesting and well-sourced, but unless I'm missing it, it doesn't appear in the actual article. The prose mentions he shares the team record for selections, and an image caption mentions he was chosen every season he played, but there's nothing about being the first NFL player to play at least ten seasons and be selected each year. @Hey man im josh: if you'll just include the fact in the article's prose and cite the SI article this should be good to go.

- Well that's embarrassing. I guess I had so many revisions and write ups I somehow accidently left it out altogether!! I've made sure it's now included in the prose. Thanks @DrOrinScrivello. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:32, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- No worries, happens to the best of us! This is now ready for the Main Page. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 13:44, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
