I just found out that Texans RB Steve Slaton is Filipino-American. His maternal grandmother is pure Filipina.
Other popular Filipino-Americans currently playing in the major US professional leagues are:
Chris Gocong, Philadelphia Eagles LB (NFL)
Eugene Amano, Tennessee Titans OL (NFL)
Jason Bartlett, Tampa Bay Rays SS (MLB)
Tim Lincecum, San Francisco Giants SP (MLB)
The recently-retired Tedy Bruschi of the New England Patriots is perhaps the most successful Filipino-American in US professional sports having been a vital cog during the Patriots' three Super Bowl championships in the mid-2000's.
