However, Marrero, Louisiana, went undrafted in the 2002 NFL Draft. Clark was promptly signed by the New York Giants as an undrafted free agent. He went on to enjoy a long and distinguished NFL career.

The LSU alum played in the NFL for 13 years, most of which were as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Clark played in 177 games and amassed a stat line of 938 combined tackles, 4.0 sacks, 16 interceptions, and four forced fumbles.

Clark retired from professional football in February 2015 and signed a symbolic one-day contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers to ensure he retired as a Steeler.

Clark retired as a one-time Pro Bowler, having made the showpiece event in 2011, and a Super Bowl winner, having won Super Bowl XLIII with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
