Kelly Gregg height - How tall is Kelly Gregg?

Gregg was released on July 28, 2011, due to salary cap constraints. While never voted to a Pro Bowl in his ten years as a Baltimore Raven, he was often considered one of the most effective nose tackles—and one of the most underrated players—in the league. In 10 years as a Raven, he notched over 500 tackles, and 19.5 sacks, and 27 post-season tackles. He was certainly one of the greatest Baltimore Ravens players, and helped continue a legacy of defensive greatness for the franchise.

Gregg was signed by the Kansas City Chiefs on July 30, 2011. In the 2011 season, Gregg finished the season with 39 tackles and 1 sack.

Gregg earned a Super Bowl ring as a member of the Baltimore Ravens practice squad in Super Bowl XXXV. He played with the Ravens through the 2010 season. Gregg spent time in his early career with the Cincinnati Bengals and Philadelphia Eagles, and was a starter for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2011.

Gregg was placed on season-ending injured reserve on October 8, 2008 after he underwent microfracture surgery on his left knee. The team signed defensive tackle Brandon McKinney to replace him on the roster. Gregg returned in 2009 and put in a strong year with 63 tackles (46 solo) and 3 sacks. In the 2010 season, he remained the starter, but split playing time with rookie Terrence Cody. He still recorded 34 tackles.

Over the following years, he helped maintain the Baltimore Ravens' reputation as a team with a top notch defense. He was a key part of several multi-game stretches of time where the Ravens defense did not allow a 100-yard rusher in a single game. Perhaps the best stretch of his career, was in 2006 and 2007. In 2006, he was a big part of the Ravens #1 ranked defense, and had a career-high 3.5 sacks. In 2007, he also notched a career-high 83 tackles, as well as 3 sacks.

He contributed more as an active member of the roster in 2001, and the following year, after the loss of many veteran members of the 2000 Super Bowl winning defense, including nose tackle Tony Siragusa, Gregg became the full-time starting nose-tackle for the Ravens in 2002. He maintained that starting role through the 2010 season. His first full year as a starter, he collected 56 tackles and two sacks. By the following season, he was already considered one of the toughest nose tackles in the league, and many Ravens fans began to refer to him as "Buddy Lee", after the brand of jeans, for his toughness against the run. 2003 was a standout season for him, as he produced 80 tackles and 2 sacks.

Gregg was signed to the practice squad of the Baltimore Ravens on September 13, 2000. He earned a Super Bowl ring when the Ravens, having an NFL record-setting defense, beat the New York Giants in Super Bowl XXXV.
