Seth Joyner (born November 18 1964 in Spring Valley, New York) is a former American football linebacker.

Early life

Joyner went to Spring Valley High School in Rockland County, New York. He played college football at the University of Texas at El Paso.

NFL career

Joyner was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 8th round of the 1986 NFL Draft. He was actually cut in training camp, but the Eagles resigned him later in the season. Joyner played in the NFL for the Philadelphia Eagles (1986-1993), Arizona Cardinals (1994-1996), Green Bay Packers (1997), and the Denver Broncos (1998). Joyner's unique combination of strength and quickness allowed him to excel in all defensive statistical categories and propelled him to three Pro Bowl accolades; being selected in 1991, 1993, and 1994. In one Monday Night game in 1991 against the Houston Oilers, Joyner, playing with a 102-degree fever, recorded eight solo tackles, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and two sacks. He was named NFL Player of the Year by Sports Illustrated that very same year and received runner-up honors for Associated Press NFL Defensive Player of the Year , while a member of the Philadelphia Eagles. He won Super Bowl XXXIII as a member of the Broncos in 1999, which turned out to be his last game.
