USA TODAY's NFL 100 – featuring the greatest players in National Football League history – includes just two Cincinnati Bengals players: Pro Football Hall of Famers Anthony Muñoz (No. 14) and Terrell Owens (No. 52).

The same number of players in the top 100 played baseball for the Cincinnati Reds.

Jim Thorpe, No. 45 on the list, hit .247 in 269 plate appearances for the Reds in 1917. And Deion Sanders, No. 16, hit .260 with 94 stolen bases in parts of four seasons for the Reds in 1994, 1995, 1997 and 2001.

Forrest Gregg, the No. 43 player on the list, was the Bengals' head coach from 1980 to 1983, leading the 1981 team to the Super Bowl.
