1977 Profile: Bob Hammond

Running Back
No. 33
Morgan State
"Hammond was originally signed as a free agent by the Giants in 1975 and was very impressive as a return man in preseason games. He was released, however, and then signed by the New Orleans Saints in 1976. Waived by the Saints, Bob was again signed by the Giants late last season and saw action as a return man and special team player in the last two games of the year.
He was an all-purpose back at Morgan State, winning three letters there as a running back, a kickoff and punt return specialist, and a receiver.
Robert Hammond was born in Orangeburg, South Carolina, then moved to New York City where he was an All-City standout in football at Bayside High School in Queens."
