A sanitation worker notices blood on his hands after he picks up a trash bag. He uncovers a pile and finds a large black man dead on the curb.
Alex says that their John Doe had a broken neck. He says they found a bag of food next to the man from a place called Nate's Burgers. Alex says the man has broken bones that shows a history of being beat up. Alex visits his boxing coach and asks him what he thinks. He says that the man didn't seem like he boxed.
Walter takes his son to the burger place and asks a waitress if they know the person who died. He shows her the photo and she says that she doesn't know anything. They receive their food order. Walter notices that his pickles are straight cut, which are different than the victim's, which are crinkle cut. The cook tells him that the original Nate's uses crinkle cuts.
Alex meets with Walter and tells him that they suspect that the killed man was a construction worker. They ask a waitress and she says that he was a regular, but doesn't know his name. She says that the man was a quiet type and paid in cash. She says that the man had a football money clip. She says that the man got in an argument with another man.
The team learns that the welder they thought was the victim is still alive. Tyler finds an auction for a football clip that was given to players. They figure that the guy was a player. Alex asks Tyler to make a new sketch of a younger version of the man. Candace says that she wants to check medical records to see if she can get a hit.
Tyler recreates a sketch of what he thinks the man, who they are calling Football John, looks like. Alex goes to the stadium and asks a representative of the football team if they recognize the man. The man says that there were thousands of players that went through their organization. Lindsay says that she couldn't find Football John's medical records. Walter visits a chiropractor who says that the player seems like he was a linemen. He analyzes the injuries and determines that he was hit one side over and over again. Walter figures that the player was a center.
Back at headquarters, Lindsay says that the teams don't keep pictures of all the players. The bartender from Nate's calls Alex and tells him that the person who argued with Football John is there. Alex and Walter drive there and meet the man. He tells Alex that he doesn't know who Football John is. He says that Football John argued with him about the treatment of injured players. He says that he couldn't have killed Football John because he is at the bar participating in trivia night. Alex asks the group of trivia players if they recognize Football John. He offers money for anyone who can help them. One man says that Football John wore a Cincinnati cap. They check out the photos hanging on the walls and recognize him. Walter finds that the man is named Tom Bryant. Alex announces that they have a winner and gives the money to Walter who in turn uses the money to buy everyone a round of drinks.
Grace says that they know where Tom Bryant used to live. Walter says that he googled Tom. He says that he played for various teams and ended his career in 1999 when he hurt his neck. Alex tells Walter to pack his bags to go with him to Cincinnati. He says that Tom didn't have family but he tried to open a barbecue restaurant with a man named Wayne Wilmers. Walter asks what they are going to do about Tom's memorial. The coach informs him that they only do that for star players.
