Rest In Peace - Freddie Solomon
Fine football player, by most accounts a HOF human being.
ESPN has the story up but this version from the Tampa Tribune is a more thorough telling of things. Tampa legend Freddie Solomon, 59, dies | TBO.com

One of my boyhood favorites as well, except when he played the Cowboys. Loved his catches in stride.
