American football player (born 1957)
American football player
Ken Fantetti (born April 7, 1957) is a former American football linebacker who played in the National Football League (NFL) for the Detroit Lions from 1979 through 1985.
Fantetti was born in Toledo, Oregon , in 1957 and played college football at the University of Wyoming from 1975 to 1978. As a senior in 1978, he had 124 tackles, including 73 unassisted tackles, and was selected as an All-American by the Football Writers Association of America .[1] He had 15 unassisted tackles and nine assists in a 1978 game against Utah. He was also selected as the Western Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 1978.[1]
He was drafted by the Detroit Lions in the second round (37th overall pick) of the 1979 NFL Draft .[2] At the time, Lions head coach Monte Clark called Fantetti "a deluxe hitter -- which means he's something special. He's an old fashioned, rough and tough, hard-nosed football player."[3] Fantetti played in 95 games for the Lions from 1979 to 1985.[2]
In 2008, Fantetti opened a barbecue restaurant called Big Ken's BBQ in Portland, Oregon .[4] [5]
He was inducted into the University of Wyoming Athletics Hall of Fame in 2003.[1] Fantetti's biography at the Hall of Fame describes him as one of "greatest impact players" and "devastating linebackers" in Wyoming history.[1]
