SAM HUFF'S BIO
Huff was originally drafted by the Giants in the third round in 1956 after an All-America career at West Virginia and became an immediate star as middle linebacker.

He played in five Pro Bowls and was named All-NFL four years. Huff won recognition for his great individual efforts against the premier running backs of his era, Jim Brown of Cleveland, Rick Casares of Chicago and Alan Ameche of Baltimore.

Huff was named Outstanding Lineman in the NFL for his play in 1959. He anchored a defense that helped the Giants reach the Championship game in 1956, 1958, 1959, 1961, 1962 and 1963. Huff was traded to the Washington Redskins before the start of the 1964 season and is currently a color analyst during Redskins radio telecasts.
