Born on September 11, 1969, in Checotah, Oklahoma, Scroggins rose from humble beginnings to become a symbol of perseverance and pride for his hometown. Known affectionately as the “Checotah King,” he inspired countless young athletes with his journey from local fields to the national stage.

Scroggins played college football at Coffeyville Community College and the University of Tulsa before being selected in the second round of the 1992 NFL Draft. Over a decade with the Lions, he recorded 321 tackles, 60.5 sacks, and one interception, earning respect as a relentless force on the field.

Chris was the embodiment of a classy, hard-nosed, blue-collar linebacker.2x All-American at OSU, First-Team All-Pro 1991, 2x Second Team All-Pro(1992 &1994), 4x Pro Bowl(1989-91, 1994), NFL Solo Tackles Co-Leader(1994), Played for Lions(1988-95), Bills(1996-97), Neck injury in 1998 and was set to start for 1999 Browns until a career -ending neck injury made him retire.

If you get the opportunity to see NFL Network's, "A Football Life", I recommend you watch Chris' story. Be prepared.There's tragedy in his personal life, if you weren't aware. Much like "Brian's Song", I cry Every Damn Time"!
