John Helwig

He played college football at the University of Notre Dame and attended Mount Carmel High School in Los Angeles, California.

[2] Helwig was selected by the Chicago Bears with the 140th pick in the 1950 NFL draft.

[1] Helwig's wife had been illegally collecting John's NFL pension since his death and had twice told officials that he was alive.

After his wife's death in 2007, their daughter began collecting the pension before she was charged with fraud in 2011.

The pension collected by John's wife and daughter after his death added up to over $200,000.
