Bernard Karmell Pollard (born December 23, 1984) is a former American football safety. He played college football at Purdue University, and was selected by the Kansas City Chiefs in the second round of the 2006 NFL Draft. He has also played for the Houston Texans, Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans. Pollard was dubbed "the Bonecrusher" while at Purdue for his hard hits and tackles, and acquired the nickname "Patriot-Killer" as a professional, after inflicting injuries which would ultimately alter four New England Patriots seasons,[1][2] including ending Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's 2008 season.
