Don't act like offensive lineman aren't obese. Average weight is 312 lbs. LINK

They undergo a lot of surgeries though. I was under the impression there was some statistical evidence that this may correspond with shorter lifespans down the road?

On the other hand, african american males have shorter lifespans than other races, so you have to take that into account in any study with NFL players who are predominately black.
