Not really. You can give it a go, there are very few footballers who are on the large side, mainly because they need to be agile and run for 90 minutes. That is in the professional game of course, in the lower leagues especially amateur level you will see some big lads giving it a go.

Weight has less to do with the linebacker position than speed. While it's great to be strong and stocky, if you're overweight and can't make the sideline-sideline transition at full speed required for the position, you're better off looking at a defensive lineman position.
