A physical behemoth at 6-5 and 245, his AFL career ran from 1960-65, all with the Denver Broncos. He appeared in 2 Pro Bowls, and played in every game in 5 of his 6 seasons, starting in the vast majority of them.

Despite his lineman build, he even ran back a kickoff for 11 yards during a game in 1962.
