This 36-year old father of 7, and two-time Super Bowl Champion is no stranger to competition, but it's usually on the playing field. After playing college ball at Boston College, this offensive lineman played for the New England Patriots, the Detroit Lions and and the New York Jets. He's also a commentator for ESPN.

This time around, he's competing on the popular NBC weigh loss show, The Biggest Challenge. He started at 388 pounds.
According to NBC, Damien's on the show "because he has lost friends he played with in the NFL far too young, and he doesn't want to be another statistic and former NFL player gone too soon due to weight-related issues."'
