Mike Alstott hasn't played in an NFL game in nearly two decades, but make no mistake, he still looks like he can truck through defenders.
Alstott had an incredible run with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1996-2007, earning Pro Bowl honors six times and winning a Super Bowl during the 2002 season. He finished his career with 5,088 rushing yards and 58 touchdowns on 1,359 carries.
Although he was known for his physicality as a runner, Alstott also had 305 catches for 2,284 yards in the NFL. Despite being considered one of the most iconic fullbacks of all time, he wasn't inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Earlier this week, the Buccaneers shared a video of Alstott lifting weights. We're not really surprised to say the 52-year-old is still in elite shape.
"A-Train looks like he could still play on Sundays," the Buccaneers wrote.
After watching this brief video, we'd have to see we agree with Tampa Bay's social media team.
Fans are itching for a comeback.
Obviously, Alstott isn't going to return to the NFL at the age of 52. If fans had it their way though, he'd be on a roster by tomorrow.
"An old lion, is still a lion," a fan wrote on Facebook.
"I want to see him back in the NFL," a second fan said.
"He looks like Hardcore Holly," another fan commented.
"Sign him back," a Buccaneers fan declared.
Kudos to Alstott for still having the look of an All-Pro fullback.
