Professional career

Philadelphia Eagles

Woodruff was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the ninth round of the 1982 NFL Draft. He played in only one game in 1982. On July 17, 1983, Woodruff broke his collarbone while attempting a diving catch during the first practice session of training camp, and missed the next eight weeks.[1] He was waived on September 2, 1985.[2]

San Francisco 49ers

Woodruff signed with the San Francisco 49ers on June 25, 1986,[3] but was released on August 16 during training camp.[4]

Arrest

Woodruff was arrested on a cocaine possession charge on May 9, 1986 when police found six grams of cocaine in the car he was driving, shortly before he was signed by the 49ers. He was ordered to stand trial on January 8, 1987.[5] He was placed in a drug diversion program in his hometown of Fresno, California to avoid prosecution.[6]

gollark: In PotatOS I made it so you can divide strings by numbers and stuff.
gollark: In Lua there's nice syntax for passing functions single string/table arguments. But the parser doesn't know what type each function takes, which saves it from the perl issue.
gollark: It's not obscure, it's pretty commonly known.
gollark: So all we need to do is modify Perl to be parseable, and then the halting problem is solved...
gollark: I have a thing to obfuscate python which produces output like this:```pythonimport zlib,base64,marshal;exec(marshal.loads(zlib.decompress(base64.b85decode("c${5PO>fjN5Vf6T<8HegI8ekXNF3Nh;}%p=P*owS!ilOBAu3-gZ#;Cf<O|zrx6u|ME%*L~?UBEff52bhgq>2UG|{{nKacaCCkeXq_%>eK&_66lByol~?lR$|%O3Y^CYhfHJithL(*KEg4?-EtF-FjnJsHl4twKpVCXh>W%qe)2r9~g;71k2G#j>lqe#^<_Rn(pF7Atba@e+ST!@+OoX@7{@K1?f7$XbI+$Q{3Z8@tZ)js=4zctK|93SU0GAjX?viRa|<{)K1!MKB{X@5<_YMw{pZIz&geDv7Kj*>B0&XxM9ewaT(|#6tz&YS4y<mMAMITED}d9@i$#_;ONK=U>tc%F$%#bI*3QzFTvuKv!j<ZB^Fh*m1v*3a!UKbXyyh7AHF`mE~EHl|l~O1>9{Ac|_Eb&CP?oDI`{;IEfBanSiVnM4NH5J~pP(uNZ^8p2kVSPC@C^DzUAtk$4F&1l!%+%j=`HBr)+ssAj-SUa|OQ`Q%_MG(;OwQsz|#2IA-qoTNq3Np*YA;wJje;;c+W#`IVyU`gWim^)J&P;9+<d}E{%+Q29+V!O$dIAe$JH=cib_f|BNX(N=Wt7df~PDQk4^`rmX3<vz)^{nH6qgI~1y$UR}q|`htbzBKER@l*QGHp=V=^0L?FydIIs`Xt%+k<JUjc#c!zJjH-{Y&T8S>8?k7Et#Qx}BG@&S1yM>4z35aqo&xDJA{u+U9%YFJ<1>Xa"))))```but I think the output only works on the same version/platform.
