Split End
No. 85
Baylor
"The return to brilliance of split end Del Shofner hinges not only on his healing ulcers but on the condition of the injured finger which kept him out for most of last season. His loss was a sorry setback for the Giants.
In his three previous seasons with them, Del amassed more than 1,000 yards a year on passes and scored a total of 32 touchdowns. He has been All-Pro five times in his nine seasons in the NFL. He broke in as a defensive back with the L.A. Rams in 1957, switched to end the following season and became a sensation. The Giants landed him in '61."
-Jack Zanger, Pro Football 1965
