Here is the link to the site I pulled these names from:

 

Players Born in Kentucky, USA | Pro-Football-Reference.com

 

I caught a couple that were born outside N. Ky. but played high school ball in N. Ky. Look the list over as there may be names I missed.

 

How good could Mitchell have really been? Didn't his team go winless his senior year? :jump:

Jeff Brady from NCC / UK played in NFL for 9 or 10 years. Maybe also born out of state.

 

Brady was born in Cincinnati. Good catch.
