Clay Matthews III (son of Clay Jr, nephew of Bruce)

Kellen Winslow II (son of Kellen I)

Chris Simms (son of Phil)

Lofa Tatupu (son of Mosei)

Matt Hasselbeck (son of Don)

Peyton Manning (son of Archie, duh)

Eli Manning (ditto)

Formerly in the NFL...

Brian Griese (son of Bob)

Tim Hasselbeck (son of Don, Matt's brother)

Ryan Nece (son of Ronnie Lott)

Ran Carthon (son of Maurice, currently on the same staff)

Marques Tuiasosopo (son of Manu)

Dan Klecko (son of Joe)

Anthony Dorsett (son of Tony)

Currently in college...

Nick Toon (son of Al, who apparently never heard of Nickelodeon)

Casey Matthews (son of Clay, younger brother of Clay III)

Matt Simms (son of Phil, Chris' younger brother, still has his spleen)

London Fryar (son of Irving Fryar)

Chris Feagles (son of Jeff, and yeah he counts)

Mike Golic Jr (son of Mike, from Mike and Mike)

Jake Golic (the younger of the Golic boys)

Austin Collinsworth (son of Cris, teammates with the Golic boys at Notre Dame)

Nate Montana (take a guess)

And of course, there was Michael Munoz (almost)

The Matthews boys are actually third generation players (grandpa Clay Sr played for the Niners). I think the only members of the Matthews family that don't play football are their mothers and sisters.

One other note that amuses me.

Chris Mortensen's son Alex plays quarterback (graduated from Arkansas). He was available in this past year's draft.

At one point in the draft broadcast, Chris turned to ESPN colleague Mel Kiper to ask him for an evaluation of son Alex as a draft prospect.

Mel's response? "I think he has a great future in coaching" :lol:

Alex wasn't drafted, but the Titans took him to camp as an undrafted. He didn't even make it to first cuts.

Yeah Scot, it does make ya feel old when you see this.

Just here in town NU has a guy coaching that I watched play when I was in grad school, Pat Fitzgerald. Guy is younger than me and is coaching div I.

I am a man, and not yet 40, but it still kinda freaks me out.

Walter's daughter is a sideline reporter for some of the Big10 games too.

    • T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
