Max Jean-Gilles (born November 19, 1983) is an American football guard who is currently a free agent. He played college football for the University of Georgia, and received All-American honors. He was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles in the fourth round of the 2006 NFL Draft, and is currently a free agent.
Jean-Gilles attended North Miami Beach High School in North Miami Beach, Florida and was a letterman in high school football. In football, he was a two-time first-team all-state selection and a two-time first-team all-county selection.
Jean-Gilles attended the University of Georgia, where he played for coach Mark Richt's Georgia Bulldogs football team from 2002 to 2005. Following his senior season in 2005, he was a first-team All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) selection and was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American. He was a key starter of the Bulldogs team that defeated the LSU Tigers 34–14 to win the 2005 SEC Championship Game.
Jean-Gilles was chosen in the fourth round with the 99th overall pick by the Philadelphia Eagles. Many people did expect him to go higher because of his athleticism and playing ability, but his inability to control his weight might have played into that decision. He and offensive tackle Winston Justice, who was drafted in the second round also by the Eagles, were supposed to have helped with the rebuilding process of the offensive line. On July 10, 2006, Jean-Gilles signed a four-year contract with the Eagles.
