Pro career

In 1988, Zeno was drafted in the 7th round (182 overall) by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Zeno's draft valued dropped from its original expectation because his poor performance at the National Football league combined with off-season knee injuries. He ran a 4.8 40-yard dash. Zeno responded to his performance by saying "I'm capable of running a 4.6 in the 40, but I'm not capable of running a 4.3 or 4.4, and they should know that. I'm a football player, not a track star."[1] In 1989, he was a member of the Green Bay Packers training camp but was released on July 27, 1989.[2] Later he signed with the Calgary Stampeders. In 1990, he was a member of the British Columbia Lions.[3] In 1991, he was the 80th wide receiver drafted in the WLAF Draft by the Raleigh–Durham Skyhawks. In 1991, he played for the Tampa Bay Storm of the Arena Football League.[4]
