Deletion of Mike Rivera (American football)

Comment: There seems to be enough coverage to satisfy .  I fear many of the "delete" votes above may not have been aware of the breadth of coverage he received. Hope I'm not too late.  For examples of significant, non-trivial coverage of Rivera in the mainstream media, see, e.g., http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=KC&p_theme=kc&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=123B758EF582FD68&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM, http://www.wibw.com/sports/headlines/30037904.html, http://cjonline.com/stories/100208/haw_339315048.shtml, http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=KC&p_theme=kc&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=11C1438E2BA5EB70&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM, http://www.wibw.com/sports/headlines/26388914.html, http://cjonline.com/stories/100508/haw_340439152.shtml, http://cjonline.com/stories/091307/haw_199059997.shtml, http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2011/apr/14/ex-jayhawk-mike-rivera-volunteers-time-teach-croch/, http://www2.ljworld.com/weblogs/tale-tait/2011/may/19/former-jayhawk-mike-rivera-continues-to-/, http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2009/04/bears_bring_jayhawks_lb_mike_r.html, http://monstersofthemidwayillustrated.wordpress.com/2009/04/20/prospect-preview-mike-rivera

Comment: Fails , having never played at highest level.  NSPORTS does not automatically assume notability based on preseason appearances or merely being on active roster in regular season without ever playing. This is a un-of-the-mill player who does not deserve a standalone article.  He also fails  with lack of non-OUTINE|routine coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.  would suggest not to speculate on future notability based on whether the undrafted player ever plays in the NFL
