1970 Rich Jackson Denver Broncos Topps NFL Card #95 NCAA Southern U

Description: This 1970 Rich Jackson Denver Broncos Topps NFL Card #95 NCAA Southern University is the exact item you will receive and has been certified Authentic by REM Fine Collectibles. Upon graduating from Landry High School, Jackson enrolled at Southern University in nearby Baton Rouge. In college, he was a standout end on both sides of the ball, lettered in track and also won the NAIA Shot-Put competition in 1962. His 58'1" heave in 1964 is still a Louisiana collegiate record. After college, Jackson went undrafted and signed with the AFL Oakland Raiders as a free agent in 1965 and he played five games at Linebacker in 1966 for Oakland. The Broncos acquired him at the beginning of training camp in 1967 when Broncos head coach Lou Saban sent All-Pro wide receiver Lionel Taylor and another player to the Raiders in exchange for Jackson and two other players. The Broncos switched him to defensive end and Jackson showed the quickness that was to become his trademark in professional football. He played for the AFL Denver Broncos from 1967 through 1969, with 10 sacks in ‘68 and a career high 11 in ‘69. Jackson racked up another 10 Sacks in 1970 as the AFL and NFL merged. Jackson was the first Bronco to be named to the All-NFL first team in 1970 and was a starter in the Pro Bowl that year. By all reckoning, he started 52 of 67 games in 5.5 years with the Broncos from 1967-72. During his time in the NFL, Jackson's nickname was "Tombstone," and he became famous for moves such as the "head slap" and the "halo spinner" which he used to subdue opposing offensive linemen. In Lyle Alzado's book "Mile High" he recalled Jackson as the toughest man he'd ever met. Jackson recorded 10 sacks in both 1968 and 1970 and posted a career-high total of 11 in 1969.[3] He was named 1st Team All-AFL by the AP, Pro Football Weekly, and UPI at the conclusion of the 1968 season and by the AP, NEA, New York Daily News, Pro Football Weekly, The Sporting News, and UPI at the end of the 1969 season. He was also a unanimous 1st Team All-NFL choice in 1970.
