1968 Topps football card of former pro fullback Earl Gros, who played 9 seasons in the NFL for 4 teams. He was a member of Green Bay’s championship team in his rookie year in 1962 and played just one more year there before being traded to the Eagles, along with center Jim Ringo, for linebacker Lee Roy Caffey and a draft pick. He had his best years in Philadelphia before finishing his career with short stints in Pittsburgh and New Orleans. For a player that was a backup most of his playing days, his 38 total career touchdowns is an impressive number. Gros died in 2013 at the age of 72.
