Dan Neil (American football)
Not to be confused with former Chicago Bears offensive lineman
Dan Neal.
Daniel Neil (born October 21, 1973) is a former American football offensive lineman in the NFL for the Denver Broncos from 1997 through 2004.
In 2010, Neil was the Republican nominee for the 48th District of the Texas House of Representatives. His opponents were Democratic incumbent Donna Howard and Libertarian Ben Easton. The election returns showed Howard winning by 16 votes. Neil challenged the results in the Texas House. A select investigating committee found Howard had won by only four votes but that Neil had not met the burden of proof required to overturn the election. Neil dropped the challenge on March 18, 2011, nearly halfway into the legislative session.[1]
Prior to pursuing political aspirations, Neil co-hosted "The Morning Rush" with Erin Hogan in Austin's ESPN Radio affiliate, 104.9 The Horn.
