Classic Team Logo of The Day

30 Mar

Logo of the National Football League’s Washington Redskins, used from 1965 until 1969. The team was coached by NFL legend Otto Graham for most of this era, but Graham’s greatness as a player did not carry over to coaching, as the club was a losing team. In 1969 they hired Vince Lombardi to replace Graham and the former Green Bay coach led the ‘Skins to a 7-5-2 record, but he died of cancer just prior to the 1970 season. Despite being a losing club from the mid-to-late ’60s, Washington had plenty of great players on their roster, including Sonny Jurgensen, Charley Taylor, Sam Huff, Jerry Smith, Paul Krause, Bobby Mitchell and Chris Hanburger.
