Rest in peace to one of the toughest players to ever play the game, Deacon Jones.
Deacon was inducted in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1980. During his career he truly reinvented the position of defensive end, by becoming the greatest pass rusher of his time. He ended his career with 179 sacks in only 190 games played!
I saw a clip this morning on ESPN where he said his hands probably gave more concussions than any hands in football. They definitely don't make football players like this anymore. Then again, football isn't the same game as it was back then, either. It seems a lot like "2 below" these days.
