Jason Jamaal Alford (born May 28, 1983) is an American former professional football defensive tackle. He was selected by the New York Giants in the third round of the 2007 NFL draft. He played college football at Penn State.
Alford was also a member of the Oakland Raiders, Seattle Seahawks, Virginia Destroyers, and Saskatchewan Roughriders. In 2007, Alford served as the Giants' long snapper during field goal attempts, due to a season-ending injury to Ryan Kuehl.[1] Alford won Super Bowl XLII in his first season, sacking Tom Brady in the final minute of the Giants' 17–14 win over the New England Patriots.
