Six-man to NFL

I had seen six-man games played before and was aware that Jack Pardee played six-man in high school but had some free time this week and wanted to learn more about something different (but of course, football related since my interests are pretty narrow, ha) and I chose six-man football. Got some film sent to me, watched a movie and bought a book.

Naturally I've looked up online to see how many six-man players have gone on to play pro football (Ed Spinkle and James Hanna are two more) but was hoping that perhaps someone here had a definitive list of six-man players who have played professional football?

I don't have a definitive list, but I know Jerry Hill of the Colts also played 6 man (and 8 man) high school football. I had always thought that tidbit about Hill to be interesting.

Thanks. I didn't know that.

Kind of a 2-for-1, with the differences even between six-man and 8 man.

Interesting, to me.
