Abner Haynes 1963
We were still the Dallas Texans in 1963, the season our stud RB Abner Haynes put on a show.
Keep in mind 14 games rushing...1049...franchise first 1000 yard season Avg....4.7 TD....13 rec....39 yards...573 Avg...14,7 TD....6 Yep, 19 TD's. He was All Pro that season. Haynes was a great runner, he had speed, quicks and was elusive, great great runner, but what has held him back from being more of a name is he only had three good seasons, not sure why. His rookie card one of my prized possesions he's in his North Texas State uni, yep, very cool. https://talesfromtheamericanfootball...-abner-haynes/ https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C...w=1600&bih=757 Last edited by Ubeja Vontell; 02-17-2020 at 01:11 AM.. |

How many games did Mike Livingston start backing up the injured Lenny Dawson in that Super Bowl winning 1969 season? He went 6-0 as a starter. Four Touchdowns/Six Interceptions

Abner Haynes trade to Denver was a shameful day in Chiefs history. Abner made the 1964 AFL All Star team which was to be played in New Orleans. New Orleans had segregated hotels for Black and White players. Abner led a resistance by the black all stars not to go if the hotels were segregated. The game was moved to Houston, where players could all stay in the same hotel. The Chiefs summarily traded Haynes to Denver for being "Uppity" and a "boat rocker." There's a letter that Jack Steadman sent him that basically said he was being traded for these reasons. He was akin to Colin Kaepernick in 1964 over Civil Rights. He had his principles, and the Chiefs got rid of him for making the league move the game from New Orleans to Houston. You can read about it here:
