[Edgy MD]

D'Brickashaw Ferguson	Marty Lyons
OT	DE–DT–NT
2006–2015	1979–1989
Three-time Pro-Bowler (2009–2011). PFWA NFL All-Rookie Team (2006). One of four Jets offensive tackles to be named an NFL or AFL all-star. Never missed a game or start from 2006-2015, appearing in 160 regular season games plus seven playoff matchups. New York Jets Ring of Honor (2022).	Tenth all-time in sacks by a Jet. Member of the New York Sack Exchange. Only Jet with two career safeties. NFL Man of the Year Award (later renamed in honor of Walter Payton), honoring a player's commitment to philanthropy and community impact, as well as his excellence on the field (1984). New York Jets Ring of Honor (2013).
Apparently named after Father Ralph de Bricassart, the problematically dreamy priest character in The Thorn Birds. This is a fact made even more awkward when he earned his degree in religious studies.	Involved in one of the most famous penalties (mis-attributed to Mark Gastineau at the time) in NFL history when he gave Jim Kelly "the business down there."
