Amon-Ra St. Brown picked four NFL greats for his personal Mount Rushmore, but the Detroit Lions star did not choose a single player from his own team.

 In a clip shared by Complex Sports, the Detroit Lions wide receiver chose stars from four different positions, but no Lions player made his list. His selections combined championship success, individual dominance, and lasting impact across four different positions.

“NFL Mount Rushmore. I'll go Tom Brady, Jerry Rice, Deion Sanders, and Aaron Donald,” St. Brown said.

Here is the list of players of the NFL who fall within St. Brown's list of Mount Rushmore, via Complex News:

1. Tom Brady

Former quarterback Tom Brady stands first on St. Brown’s list after building a career filled with championships and NFL records.

The New England Patriots selected him with the 199th pick in the 2000 NFL Draft, and he went on to win six Super Bowls with New England before adding another with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Brady finished with a record seven Super Bowl titles and five Super Bowl MVP awards. He also set career marks in passing yards, touchdowns, and completions, making his place among the game's biggest names easy to understand.

2. Jerry Rice

Jerry Rice gave St. Brown's Mount Rushmore one of the most successful wide receivers in NFL history. Rice spent 20 seasons in the league and built career numbers that separated him from nearly every player at his position.

Rice finished with 1,549 catches, 22,895 receiving yards, and 197 touchdowns. He also won three Super Bowls with the San Francisco 49ers and earned Super Bowl XXIII MVP honors, adding championship success to his long list of records.

3. Deion Sanders

Deion Sanders brought a different kind of star power to the list. Moreover, he could play cornerback and returner, recording 53 career interceptions while scoring touchdowns on interception, punt, and kickoff returns.

“They don't pay nobody to be humble. Some people will come out to see me do well. Some people will come out to see me get run over. But love me or hate me, they're going to come out,” Sanders said in 1989, during NFL Draft Night.

Sanders earned nine first-team All-Pro selections at cornerback and won two Super Bowls during his 14-season career.

4. Aaron Donald

Aaron Donald rounds out St. Brown’s four-man group after spending his entire NFL career with the Los Angeles Rams. Though smaller than many of the players he faced on the defensive line, Donald used his speed and strength to become one of the league's hardest defenders to stop.

Donald recorded 111 sacks in 154 games, earned 10 Pro Bowl selections, and won Defensive Player of the Year three times. His career included a Super Bowl title, adding another player to St. Brown's list who combined individual greatness with team success.

Together, Brady, Rice, Sanders, and Donald represent four players who redefined their positions, making it easy to see why St. Brown views them as the faces of his personal NFL Mount Rushmore.
