Offensive Tackle
No. 61
Idaho State
"John was signed after the first two games last year and wound up starting six days later at left tackle. He started again the following week at San Francisco but had a hard time with Cedric Hardman (not the only player with that problem).
Coaches say he has potential but needs a lot of work. He's a very green player who was on special teams duty for nine games.
John was originally drafted 13th by Baltimore but decided to join the World Football League's Philadelphia Bell. He saw spot duty there and then signed with the Colts in 1976 but was cut following the preseason.
A two-time All-Big Sky Conference selection, John bench pressed 450 pounds. He played prep football at Absecon Holy Spirit High in Absecon, New Jersey, his birthplace and hometown."
