High school years
Lang attended Maynard Evans High School in Orlando and was a letterman in football, basketball, and baseball.
College and professional career
Lang played college football at the University of Miami. He was part of the 10-1 1994 Hurricanes squad who played in the Orange Bowl.[1]
Lang was selected in the first round with the 17th overall pick in the 1997 NFL Draft by The Washington Redskins where he played through the 2001 season.[2] He later signed with The Cleveland Browns.
During the 2005 season, the Browns attempted to convert Lang to linebacker in their new 3-4 scheme under head coach Romeo Crennel. The position change was generally considered to be unsuccessful, however, and Lang was released in February 2006. On March 18, 2006, Lang signed with the Denver Broncos. The Broncos released him on August 27, 2007.
