Celebrity Secret Pasts: A-Listers You Won’t Believe Were High School Football Stars

Dwayne Johnson

Believe it or not—and it’s not hard to believe—Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was once a football player before becoming an action movie superstar. The former professional wrestler was a 1991 national championship team member at the University of Miami. Although he spent most of his four college football years as a backup, Johnson aspired to play in the NFL.

He went unselected in the 1995 NFL Draft but became one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood. Not bad, right?
