1978 Profile: Kyle Chandler

Center 

No. 61

Princeton

"Signed by the Giants as a free agent after an impressive performance in a 1974 pre-season tryout camp at Fordham, Karl proved to be a valuable addition to the club in his rookie campaign. He stepped right in and did a solid job, starting four games and assisting the specialty teams as well.

Karl earned varsity letters in both football and wrestling at Princeton, playing offensive tackle with the tackles. He lost only two wrestling matches in three years. Karl is a fine squash player."
