Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on December 09, 1938)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Deacon Jones, a defensive wizard whose sacks sent quarterbacks scrambling for cover! Your trademark "head slap" and relentless pursuit didn't just set records; they reinvented defense itself. It’s rumored QBs still look nervously over their shoulders, half-expecting your signature rush.

An eight-time Pro Bowler and two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year doesn’t age—he simply gains more fans in awe. On this special day, may you tackle cake faster than offensive linemen surrendered under pressure from number 75.

Here's wishing you less head-slaps today—but plenty of joyful high-fives instead. Have an epic celebration worthy of your Hall-of-Fame legacy!
