Split End
No. 85
Baylor
"The master receiver of down-and-out patterns is Del Shofner, the ex-Ram who was so instrumental in aiding the club to its 1961 flag. He moved 1,125 yards with 68 forwards last year and closed as No. 3 man in this category.
The Center (Texas) cyclone came to L.A. in 1957 and was too fast to keep at defensive halfback. Switched to end in '58, he was the league leader as a pass receiver and also was used as a punter."
-Don Schiffer, 1962 Pro Football Handbook
"Del ranked third in pass receiving in 1961. He came to the Giants from the Los Angeles Rams."
-1962 Topps No. 106
