Mark Herzlich Biography

Mark Herzlich, relatively new to the NFL, is currently a linebacker for the New York Giants. Herzlich was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2011 after playing college football for Boston College. Born in Kirkwood, Missouri in 1987, Herzlich attended high school in Pennsylvania where his outstanding senior year as linebacker resulted in being recruited by several top-notch schools, including Vanderbilt and UNC Chapel Hill. Multi-talented, Herzlich also received a lacrosse scholarship offer from John Hopkins University. Choosing to attend Boston College, he excelled to such an extent that he could have opted out of his senior year as he was projected top-15 pick by many scouts for the 2009 NFL Draft. However, humbly choosing to return for his final season at Boston College in 2009, plans changed for Herzlich. He was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer and beat the odds but overcoming it and returning to the football field in 2010. While this put a slight wrench in things, Herzlich may not have been drafted but has been playing for the New York Giants since 2011, aweing fans and teammates with 68 tackles after just two years and a tremendous fighting spirit, as a title holder of both the Disney Spirit Award and the Rudy Award. Herzlich’s 2011 NFC Championship is just the beginning of great things to come.
