According to ViewImages.com, the top photo was taken on May 5, 2005. The bottom photo was snapped on May 30, 2007. (To confirm, go to ViewImages.com, search "Shawne Merriman," and compare the head shot on page 7 to the head shot on page 20.)
Merriman played in only 12 games last season because he was suspended for four games for violation of the league's policy on anabolic steroids and related substances. He claimed that a supplement he was taking had been spiked with a steroid, and he made some noise at the time about suing the supplemental manufacturer. But, to date, it hasn't happened.

Well he did trim the goatee down a bit, which might make him appear to look smaller.

Plus he has those puffy shoulders on his jersey in the top photo.

Here's the excuse Merriman offered up when asked about Drew's hit:
"The fullback bluffs me and they make it look like they're going out for a pass, so the fullback runs right past you and I stopped to check to see what's going on because whenever somebody doesn't block me coming in, you stop to find out what's going on, and here comes that little 5-7, 220-pound guy right behind him and caught me late going into a pass coverage.
"It was definitely a good play. I should probably send him a thank you card for (angering) me the rest of the season."
Didn't look like he got caught off guard to me, and he definitely hadn't stopped to find out what was going on. He just got lambasted!

Did Merriman get that tattoo on his neck in the second picture recently?
