Just saw him listed in the In Memoriam section on the home page of Pro Football Reference and didn't see it posted anywhere that he passed away 10/25 at the age of 81.....was a Steelers CB from 1961-67 and made the Pro Bowl in 1966 as well as having two of the longest punt returns in team history, 90 and 82 yarders, that somehow neither went for a TD. Also became very successful in the restaurant business after retirement and wrote a book about it in the early 70's inc. how Art Rooney gave him financial backing to help him get it off the ground. He wore the Black and Gold a little before my and most of our time but I took notice cause I actually bought his game worn 1966-67 Batman style jersey from the team last year. Just wanted to recognize him on here...
