Robert Lee Tobeck[1] (/ˈtoʊbɛk/; born March 6, 1970) is a former American football center who played fourteen seasons in the National Football League (NFL). Tobeck played six seasons for Seattle Seahawks after being acquired as a free agent from the Atlanta Falcons after signing as a rookie in 1993.
Tobeck started his college career after accepting a scholarship to Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, but was redshirted as a freshman. He transferred to Kilgore College, a junior college in Kilgore, Texas for two years and then went on to play big league college football at Washington State University.
During high school, Tobeck attended New Port Richey (FL) Christian, which, until his senior year, only offered a flag football program. However, the basketball program was a standout and Tobeck was a major part of its program.
He retired at the end of the 2006 NFL season, on January 15, 2007 after a playoff loss to the Chicago Bears. [1]
He played in two Super Bowls, Super Bowl XXXIII as a member of the Falcons and Super Bowl XL as a Seahawk.
