Roman Gabriel died this past week

Post by Softball Bat »

I've been very busy, so didn't catch this.
Died on 4/20.

From the article...


Even while playing in an era of grinding it out on the ground, he still holds the Rams’ team record with 154 touchdown passes.


Pretty amazing.

League MVP in '69, when young poptart was just gaining an interest in the NFL.




R.I.P.

No trace of CTE. That head o’ hair protected him.

What a great era he played in.

Got a Rams helmet for Christmas when I was about 9. I became Roman Gabriel when I put it on.
