The Heaviest Football players in NFL history from 1920-2009, officially recorded are, Leonard Davis and Aaron Gibson both are/were 375 pounds and stand/stood 6'6" with Body Mass Indexes of 43.3. Now the weights go up and down all the time and there are varies articles on the web as you will see below where their weights have gone as high as 400+ pounds, however, those were not official weights to the best of my knowledge.
Here is other input:
If you are interested in muscular rather than fat players, consider Johnathan Ogden. He was 6' 9" and around 345 lbs. He was selected to the Pro Bowl eleven times. At one point, Leonard Davis was 381lbs, making him the second heaviest player in NFL history & the 1st most recent.
Currently, the heaviest players in the NFL (as of the 2009 season) are Brandon McKinney, defensive tackle for the Baltimore Ravens, and Herman Johnson, guard for the Arizona Cardinals, who both are listed on the roster at 360 pounds.For the heaviest player in NFL history, see the related question below.
That statistic is not kept by the NFL.
The heaviest pitcher in MLB History is definitely Nolan Ryan.
Aaron Gibson who played in the NFL for five seasons with the Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys, and Chicago Bears. He was drafted at 6'6 377lbs. By the time he checked in for Buffalo Bills training camp his weight had swelled to 410lbs. For the season (where he was 3rd-string Right Guard) he was down to 386lbs.
