1974 Profile: David Knight

Wide Receiver
No. 82
William & Mary
"An extremely promising young receiver who could challenge for a starting position this year, Knight impressed coaches with his great hands last year. He caught six passes during spot duty in 1973, one of them a 17-yard touchdown from Al Woodall against Green Bay.
Knight has a great knack of getting to the ball and hanging on to it despite the hits after the catch. He does not have great speed, but runs fine patterns and uses his savvy to get free. He was drafted 11th in 1973.
Born in Trieste, Italy, his hometown is Alexandria, Virginia. David enjoys movies and reading for relaxation. His brother, Randy, is a wide receiver for William & Mary."
