Shawne Merriman

Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil "The Media Giant"
Haley and Greg Hanna of TOSS C3 will interview Shawne
Merriman.


Shawne DeAndre Merriman, nicknamed "Lights Out", is an
American former professional football linebacker in the National
Football League. He played college football for the Maryland
Terrapins and was selected 12th overall by the San Diego Chargers
in the 2005 NFL Draft.


 He earned NFL Defensive Rookie of the
Year honors in his first season and
recorded 39+1⁄2 quarterback sacks in his first
three seasons, also making three Pro Bowls as well as
two All-Pro selections. He was hampered by injuries his
next three seasons, and the Chargers waived Merriman midseason in
2010. He was picked up through waivers by
the Buffalo Bills that season, but he only played
minimally with the Bills due to continued injuries. He was
released by the Bills before the 2012 season before they
re-signed him midseason. He retired at the end of the 2012
season.
