Offensive Tackle
No. 76
Southwest Oklahoma State
"Mike was one of the former Memphis Southmen signed as a free agent in 1976 by the Giants and made the club with some solid work in the preseason. He appeared in 11 games and was a starter at left tackle for the final two games of the season after Tom Mullen went down with a knee injury.
Originally with the Dallas Cowboys as a free agent in 1973, he was released and spent two seasons with Memphis in the World Football League as a starting tackle.
Gibbons played four seasons at Southwest Oklahoma State as a defensive tackle, winning All-Conference honors in 1972, and appeared in the Oklahoma Shrine Bowl in his senior year. He majored in geology.
Mike L. Gibbons was born in Lewisville, Arkansas and played his high school football at Colorado High School in Colorado City, Texas and at Duncan High School in Duncan, Oklahoma. He now resides in Decatur, Alabama."
