After graduating from Grambling with a BS in Criminal Justice, Glover set his sights on professional athleticism. He was drafted by the Los Angeles Raiders in 1991.

Poncho played in the National Football League for ten years, including stints with the Minnesota Vikings and the New Orleans Saints. During his professional career, the dedicated student was coached by greats like Hall of Fame inductee Art Shell and Dennis Green and was also nominated for the NFL Man of the Year.
