Bruce Armstrong
Bruce Charles Armstrong (born September 7, 1965) is an American former professional football player who was an offensive tackle in the National Football League (NFL) from 1987 to 2000, playing all 14 seasons with the New England Patriots.He was selected in the first round (23rd overall) in the 1987 NFL Draft out of University of Louisville,[1] where he was a four-year varsity athlete and was named the "Most Outstanding Lineman" following his senior season.The only offensive linemen to play in more Pro Bowls as a Patriot are Hall-of-Famer John Hannah and Jon Morris.The only games he missed were in the second half of the 1992 season, after tearing the medial collateral ligament and both his anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments in his right knee against the Buffalo Bills in November of that year.Though it was feared that the injury would be a career-ending one, Armstrong rebounded and was back the next season.
