Yes, A 32-Year-Old Plays For Colorado State’s Football Team

Your dream of playing college football may not be over. I played football in high school, but I could never imagine myself strapping on a helmet and shoulder pads ever again. I am retired due to sciatica and being out of shape. However, you might have a chance in Colorado.

A man in his thirties plays football for the Colorado State Rams. We aren't kidding. It is incredibly impressive.

The 32-year-old is Jordan Noyes. He is currently a kicker for the Colorado State University football team. You might be wondering how this is possible. I am younger than this kicker and I am incredibly impressed that he is able to continue his athletic career.

Believe it or not, Noyes is not the oldest player in college football. A 34-year-old kicker at the University of Virginia named Matt Ganyard is the oldest.

How This Is Possible in Colorado

The NCAA does not have an age limit for players. Their restrictions are based on enrollment. When a student starts at a college their athletic eligibility begins. There are exceptions made as well such as international students and students that have served in the military.

The oldest player to ever play NCAA is a kicker who attended Faulkner University. Alan Moore was 61 years old and played for one season.
