Linebacker
No. 10
Michigan State
"The No. 2 draft choice of the Giants in 1973 after an All-American career at Michigan State, Brad was plagued by nagging injuries all through his rookie year and consequently appeared in only five games. Initially, he reported to training camp with a foot injury and after overcoming that problem, suffered a series of deep groin pulls which inhibited his progress. Nonetheless, he has great potential as evidenced by his work with the special teams when he had the chance to play.
A unanimous All-American in college where he was a monster man defensive back, Brad also won the Maxwell Trophy his senior year. He had 14 career interceptions and returned two for touchdowns, kicked off, and had 84 tackles his senior year. Brad also lettered in basketball and in baseball and had a big bonus offer from the St. Louis Cardinals as a pitcher.
Brad was born in Owosso, Michigan and played all sports at Owosso High School before heading to Michigan State. He raises St. Bernard puppies, is a fine cribbage player and still lives in his hometown during the off-season."
