Vonnie Holliday is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on December 11, 1975 in Camden, South Carolina, United States. Dimetry Giovonni “Vonnie” Holliday (born December 11 1975) is an ex- American football defensive lineman within the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by Green Bay Packers 19th overall in the 1998 NFL Draft. He played for the University of North Carolina.

They included his grandmother, mother and two sisters as well as an aunt. He established his foundation, the Vonnie Holliday Foundation in 2001 that assists hospitals for children as well as also the Camden Bulldogs football camp in South Carolina with visits and fundraising activities.
Though the Packers and Holliday discussed a contract extension prior to the 2002 season, the organization’s decision to retain defensive tackle Cletidus Hunt – coupled with coach Mike Sherman being a fan of young defensive end Aaron Kampman – spelled the end of Holliday’s tenure in Green Bay after the expiration of his rookie contract.
As a free agent in 2003, Holliday received interest from multiple teams including the Arizona Cardinals and the Seattle Seahawks. However, it was the Kansas City Chiefs that landed him on April 7, inking him to a five-year deal worth $21.3 million and a signing bonus of $4 million. That being the case, the structure of the contract created what essentially would be a two-year deal due to a $5 million bonus owed before the third year. As things would turn out, those first two years would be the length of Holliday’s tenure in Kansas City.
