Deion Sanders
2. Gene Conley (Celtics and Braves) and Otto Graham (Browns and Rochester Royals)

MFL, you listed 2 sports for the Big Hurt I am looking for a guy with 4. I am not 100% sure the other guy had 4 letters, though.

Jim Thorpe?

who are the only two NFL Hall-of-Famers who played for the New York Yankees?

OK, I am claiming that I stumped you. The other 4 letter guy that I know of is Jim Brown - football, lacrosse, basketball, and track.
