Article about an American Football player who has not yet played a regular season game in the NFL failing WP:NGRIDIRON. They have been injured and will not be playing anytime soon. Reliable sources do not offer enough WP:SIGCOV to meet WP:GNG. McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 01:58, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, if a topic meets the general notability guideline, it does not need to meet NGRIDIRON. Hutcherson appears to meet GNG per the following sources: This from The Jackson Sun (part 1/part 2); this from The State; this from The State; this from The Charlotte Observer; and possibly this from The McKenzie Banner (I can't access it).

Let me start off with I have no issues with it being recreated once they play a game. In the sources I see nothing that makes them any more notable then any other NFL draftee. I think there is a lack of sustained coverage. Excluding the article (the first 2 references) about them as a highschool player per WP:YOUNGATH the rest are about his journey to being drafted which would be considered a burst of news and failing WP:SUSTAINED.

While you say that "I see nothing that makes them any more notable then any other NFL draftee." I'd like to note that nearly every other NFL draftee is notable (we're missing just one article on a draft pick from the last decade), so he does not need to be more notable than someone else. Also, from what I've seen in other deletion discussions, articles like the ones I've shown are considered significant, and therefore he meets the general notability guideline. If you need additional sources then here you go: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:52, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, This player may play in a regular season game. Recreation of this article would be too tedious if it was deleted. --InternetScavenger89 — Preceding undated comment added 03:53, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is an invalid argument for keeping an article per WP:CRYSTALBALL. Undeletion is an option if they do end up meeting the criteria in the future. 01:00, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Keep, He will eventually play in one NFL game. He is on a 3 year contract. Wp9097 (talk) 23:58, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Same as above, you don't know and we don't predict the future here. McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 01:00, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify for now. Henderson has a pretty standard UDFA contract with minimal guaranteed money, meaning that the player can be cut without serious financial consequences to the team, so it's not a given that he will be on the team next year. Best, GPL93 (talk) 20:05, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hutcherson does not need to meet NGRIDIRON if he has met GNG, and he appears to per the sources I have provided. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:52, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per abundant WP:SIGCOV presented by BeanieFan, passes WP:GNG. Cbl62 (talk) 03:06, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
