Andre Wadsworth (born October 19, 1974) is a former American college and professional football player who was a defensive end in the National Football League (NFL) for three seasons. He played College football for Florida State University, and earned All-American honors. Wadsworth was selected in the first round of the 1998 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals and he played professionally for the Cardinals.
Wadsworth was born in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. He attended Class A Florida Christian School in Miami-Dade County, Florida, where he starred at tight end for the Florida Christian Patriots high school football team. He was named first-team All-Dade County and voted all-conference and second-team all-state as a defensive lineman. He also returned a kickoff for 98 yards for a touchdown.
Wadsworth was recruited by only one small college, Stony Brook in New York. Wadsworth decided to attend Florida State University, and played for the Florida State Seminoles football team as a walk-on and eventually earned an athletic scholarship. He received second-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) honors his freshman, sophomore and junior seasons (1994–1996) as a defensive tackle. Despite being a potential top-10 NFL Draft pick after his junior season, he stayed for his senior year, citing a pinched nerve in his neck that forced him out of four games in 1996 as a concern regarding his physical capabilities to perform for scouts at full capacity.
