Hall of Famer Winslow takes job with Disney Sports Attractions

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Former NFL star Kellen Winslow joined Disney Sports Attractions' sports and recreation staff Monday.

The 47-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer will be in charge of events planning for Disney's Wide World of Sports Complex, its five golf courses, two water parks and other recreational programs.

"The opportunity to join the Walt Disney Company was just too good to pass up," said Winslow, who will be based at Walt Disney World in Orlando.

Winslow will report to former Cincinnati linebacker Reggie Williams, now the vice president of Disney Sports Attractions.

Winslow was a five-time Pro Bowl tight end with the San Diego Chargers from 1979-87. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1995.
