1977 Profile: David Knight
Wide Receiver
No. 82
William and Mary
"Knight came back as a starter last year after missing most of the 1975 season following knee surgery. His stats dropped off from his sophomore season when he was second on the club in receptions to Jerome Barkum with 40, for 579 yards, a 14.5 average and four touchdowns. David started 13 games last year and made 20 catches for 403 yards, a 20.2 average and two touchdowns.
His most catches in one game in 1976 were his five against the Colts, and he had his longest career reception with a 44-yard touchdown at Baltimore. His best day in the pros was in 1974 with seven catches for 117 yards at Baltimore.
Knight's career totals show 66 receptions for 1,060 yards, a 16.1 average and seven touchdowns. Although he doesn't possess burning speed, he has outstanding hands and runs precise patterns.
He won AP All-East honors and was two-time All-Southern Conference. Knight caught 133 passes for 1,995 yards and nine touchdowns during his college career. He played in the East-West and North-South Shrine Games, the Coaches' All-America Game and the 1971 Tangerine Bowl.
David holds a B.S. in business administration. He idolized Oakland's Fred Biletnikoff during his early career. Born in Trieste, Italy, his hometown is Alexandria, Virginia and he makes his off-season home in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania."
