Classic Sports Card of The Day

29 Sep

93upperdecktasker

1993 Upper Deck football card of one of the greatest special teams players of all time, former Buffalo Bill Steve Tasker.  Tasker joined the Bills in 1986 after being cut by the Houston Oilers and carved out a 12 year career with the team as a special teamer, revolutionizing the “gunner” position on kick coverage teams. He also was an accomplished field goal and punt blocker, and basically took advantage of the fact that the Bills’ coach at the time, Marv Levy, was a former special teams coach who put a great emphasis on that phase of the game. Tasker was a seven-time Pro Bowler in his career, and currently works as a game analyst on NFL telecasts for CBS.
