John Ulysses Mobley (born October 10, 1973 in
Chester, Pennsylvania) is a former American
Football linebacker who played eight seasons for the Denver Broncos from 1996 through
Mobley was drafted in the first round of the 1996 NFL Draft by the Broncos after a college football career in Kutztown University. Mobley best season was in 1997 when he had 132 tackles and four sacks and was a All-Pro that season. Mobley missed most of the 1999 season because of an injury.
Mobley suffered a bruised spinal column during the 2003 season after he collided with his teammate Kelly Herndon in a game against the Baltimore Ravens, and the injury was severe enough that the Broncos cut him before the 2004 season in order to allow him time for recovery. He later re-signed with the Broncos and retired because of the injury.
Mobley served seven days in prison for a DUI conviction in 2004 after being pulled by it and arrested on December 28, 2002. He was found guilty by a jury in April 2004 and was sentenced to 365 days behind bars, but the judge in the case later overruled it to seven days.
During his career, Mobley played in 105 career games, starting 102 of them including two Super Bowls, making 608 career tackles, 10.5 quarterback sacks, and five interceptions for 45 yards and a touchdown.
John Mobley's height is 6-1 and his weight is 236.
