How many can we name? The only 3 I can think of right now are Jim Brown (many movies), Brett Favre (There's Something About Mary) and Dan Marino (Ace Ventura).

Michael Irvin in Longest Yard.

Speaking of which, that's probably the worst movie I've ever seen. Definitely the worst writing.

I'm not much of a sports freak so i don't always recognize them, but you can usually tell when there is one cause, for some reason, most athlete's can't act.

Lance Armstrong was in Me, Myself and Dupree.

Well if we're considering wrestling as a professional sport, we can't leave out Andre the Giant from The Princess Bride. And didn't Hulk Hogan star in a movie too?
