1977 Profile: Larry Mialik

Tight End
No. 83
Wisconsin
"Mialik was acquired on waivers by the Giants during this past off-season from the San Diego Chargers. He was originally a No. 12 draft choice of the Atlanta Falcons in 1972 and spent four seasons there as a backup tight end and special teams player. He caught two passes for 30 yards in 1973 and also had a pair of fumble recoveries on special teams.
Signed by the Houston Oilers as a free agent last season, Larry moved on to the Chargers late in the season. Hampered by minor injuries in Atlanta and Houston, he played in two games last season.
Mialik missed almost all of his senior season at Wisconsin because of a broken arm but was an All-Big Ten selection as a junior when he caught 33 passes for 702 yards.
He was born in Passaic, New Jersey and was an all-around high school star at Clifton High School in Clifton, NJ. Larry has spent considerable time during the off-season in Marathon, Florida where he owns and operates an 18-unit condominium project in the Florida Keys."
