Damion McIntosh in Fort Lauderdale, Florida


Listen Later

Damion McIntosh came to Kansas State in 1995 out of McArthur High School in Hollywood, Florida. A native of Jamaica, McIntosh began playing football in high school to maximize the potential of his immense size. Playing both defensive and offensive tackle, McIntosh received recruiting interest from all over the country, but picked Kansas State based on his recruitment by former K-State defensive coordinator Bob Stoops. McIntosh redshirted his first season, and then played defensive tackle his first three years of eligibility, becoming an All-Big 12 performer. Then, in his senior season (1999), Coach Bill Snyder convinced McIntosh to fill a need at left offensive tackle, and his fate was sealed. McIntosh was drafted as an offensive tackle in the third round of the 2000 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers. During his 10-year NFL career, McIntosh played for the Chargers, the Miami Dolphins, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Seattle Seahawks. Now 48 years old, McIntosh lives with his family in the Fort Lauderdale, Florida, area, where he fills his time as a volunteer high school football coach and manages his varied business interests.
