Wide Receiver
Free Agent
West Virginia
"Signed as a free agent, Marshall was drafted in the 10th round by Atlanta in 1975. Scouts like his speed and jumping ability but point to the need to work on his pass patterns.
Mills averaged 12.4 yards per catch as a senior and was named the outstanding athlete of 1974-75. He played in the Peach Bowl and the Coaches' All-America Game and was named All-East. He majored in physical education, health and safety.
As a prep athlete, Marshall was named all-state for three seasons as a basketball player while leading the team in scoring for three seasons. His football team won the Tennessee A.A.A. state championship when he was a senior as he played quarterback, running back and wide receiver. His hometown is Morristown, Tennessee."
