Former NFL QB on Survivor Guatemala?

I normally don't comment on suspected Survivors this far before a season starts but this story has a little celebrity (very little celebrity) attached to it.

The Detroit Free Press is reporting that Gary Hogeboom (right), a former NFL quarterback, may be a contestant on Survivor Guatemala. He attended Central Michigan University from 1976 to 1979 and played ten seasons in the NFL, the first six with the Dallas Cowboys. He played with two other teams as well. Most of his career he was a back-up quarterback (not that there's anything wrong with that). He turns 47 years of age next month. Family and friends seem to be in non-disclosure mode (lending validity to the story) but some of them say Gary has had a sore shoulder lately which prevents him from playing golf.

Having Gary play Survivor could be interesting. Would he reveal to the others that he's a former professional athlete? If I were him, I wouldn't tell the others. On the other hand, if he's having trouble playing golf what kind of shape is he in?
