[BigJay]

Ripe old age of 91. Guy was a real character.

Was an announcer until his mid-80s.

Held the passing yardage records for both Washington and Philadelphia at one point. Still holds the single-season passing TD mark for Washington.

RIP
He was from the days when QBs were as tough as linemen.

How he's in the HOF I'll never understand

Can’t compare QB stats from his era to modern players.

It was all about leadership in his day - not stats.

Long career and a champion leader is what put him in there.
