Center
No. 56
Wake Forest
"Probably the team's most valuable player last season, his first as a Giant after being traded by Pittsburgh. 'I feel sorry for this team,' Clack said late in the year after considerable fan abuse. 'Every time we come off the field guys from the other team are saying, 'I wouldn't want to play here.' Clack is a consummate team man and rugged old pro who does his best no matter what.
Born in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, he played at Wake Forest. He originally signed as a free agent with the Steelers and hated watching the playoffs on TV last year."
-John Jeansonne, The Complete Handbook of Pro Football (1979 Edition)
"A solid performer for the Steelers at both center and guard, Jim joined the Giants prior to 1978 and became the club's regular center. He was a center at Pittsburgh until the 1974 season, then switched to guard where he was a starter in two Super Bowl wins.
Jim was the top blocker in the Atlantic Coast Conference in his senior campaign. A fine pass protector, he was an honor student in high school."
