1967 Profile: Don Maynard

Flanker
No. 13
Texas Western
"Scrawny-looking Don Maynard holds practically every pass catching record on the Jets. He's a gifted receiver who has been known to distract both enemy defenders and his own teammates by his ad-lib patterns. These are but some of the reasons why opposing teams accorded him double coverage last year, thereby enabling George Sauer and the other Jet receivers to have big years. When he was the target, Don caught 48 passes for 840 yards, a 17.5 average, with five touchdowns, which was good enough for ninth in the league.
A ten-year pro veteran and a member of the original 1960 team, Don had his best year in 1965, when he caught 68 passes for 1,218 yards and 14 touchdowns."

-Jack Zanger, Pro Football 1967

"The veteran flanker holds 13 records for the Jets. The opposition respects this speedy player and constantly double-teams him.
In 1966, Don was second on the team and ninth in the AFL in receiving."

-1967 Topps No. 97
