Here's one very few, if any will remember.
Flyin' Brian Pillman.
Interesting facts:
Graduated Norwood High School (city i work in) and was a good friend of my boss growing up.
Went to Miami (OH) and was a good player but struggled academically.
He was roommates with John Harbaugh while at Miami.
Undrafted and signed with the Bengals as a FA in '84. Didn't make the final cut.
Just so happens i got season tickets in '84 and vividly remember watching him running down the field in preseason on ST like a madman. He was one of those fan favorites due to his effort and being from around here.
EDIT: Or he was cut and then re-signed at some point. I'm gonna need to text my boss and see if he remembers...
