He was pretty dominant in his day, Second or third team all American at DE. No Brad Wing but average SEC punter. . Drafted by Raiders but injured early on, Got a Super Bowl ring though. He was from De Ridder. He was so athletic than ran him at tailback every once in a while, He was 6'4" , 235 in high school . I was a 165 pound cornerback. It did not end too well for me when he ran a sweep my way! Think he woks for Turner in Baton Rouge.

Thanks (to those who did not make fools of themselves before getting the facts), I guess I am just an old guy, but recall seeing him play as a young boy, but never heard much about him since. Recall he was a beast and thought he was a real good punter, but never saw what his averages were etc. Cannot imagine too many DE's being good punters ever. Did NOT know he was all SEC as DE

A great athlete...was a 4 year starter, played his entire senior year with the wrist injury that would eventually end his pro career and was a 14.1 hurdler in HS...
