Re: Top 10 linebackers, 1950 thru 1969?

Re: Last 2 way player?
That might be it, depending on your definition. Several defensive players have come in on goal line offense, like J.J. Watt and Dontari Poe. Two defensive backs saw action in the regular offense, but very little. Marcus Jones saw 18 offensive snaps for the 2022 Patriots, and caught 4 passed for 69 ...

Two Way Players in the 1960's
Didn't want to hijack another thread And he's split time at center. The 60-minute thing was also late in his career He'd play center some games and LBer others ... or first half one, second half the other. SO both ways but not all game ... George Connor was probably the guy who played both ways next...

Re: Revisionist history
I would vote Sonny Randle for 1st Team all-pro along with Raymond Berry. Its a combination of having seen footage of early AFL defenses and Randle being able to lead both the AFL & NFL in TD receptions while catching passes from King Hill and John Roach. And Sam Etcheverry, Ralph Guglielmi, Bud...
