1981 Topps football card of former NFL quarterback Steve Grogan, who played 16 seasons in the league, all with the New England Patriots. He didn’t have a stellar career, but is somewhat underappreciated for his longevity and toughness. He did lead the Pats to the playoffs 3 times, including in his second season, 1975, which was the team’s first playoff appearance since their AFL days in 1963. Grogan’s contributions grew to be more appreciated as the years went by after his playing days ended, and he was inducted into the Patriots’ Hall of Fame in 1995.
