He was elected as one of the top 15th finalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 but missed the cut every year. He is currently eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2007.

Kuchenberg attended college in the University of Notre Dame where he played both the offensive and defensive lines there, and was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles as a fourth-round pick in the 1969 NFL Draft where he was quickly cut. After playing a season of Semi-Pro football Kuechenberg signed with the Dolphins as a free agent in 1970. He was elected twice All-Pro in 1975 and in 1978 and was elected All-AFC three times.
