1974 Profile: Dick Enderle

Guard
No. 62
Minnesota
"Enderle came to the Giants in a trade with the Atlanta Falcons for a No. 6 draft choice prior to the 1972 season and won a starting job at left guard. He turned in an outstanding season for a much improved offensive line that allowed only 10 sackings of Giant passers. Last year, he played in all 14 games despite a chronic shoulder dislocation that was repaired by surgery in the off-season.
Dick was a No. 7 draft choice of the Falcons in 1969 and spent three seasons with Atlanta. He was a starting left guard his rookie year, then moved to right guard his second campaign and again was a regular. During 1971, he started most of the games at left guard.
Enderle won three letters in both football and wrestling at Minnesota and was picked for the All-Big 10 team in football his senior year. He also played in the East-West game after his senior campaign.
Dick was born in Breckenridge, Minnesota and graduated from Elbow Lake High School where he was All-State in football as well as the state wrestling champion his senior year. He now resides in Minneapolis during the off-season."
