Name that player!

Played the positions of end, halfback and guard at the University of Michigan. All of pro career has been with the Lions. Came from the University with little fanfare, and during 4 of 6 years battling for the Lions has been their leading pass receiver. Holds various records in this branch of play. Off-season business: automotive ads.



Dibble has become one of the NFL's finest receivers - ranked fifth in League last season. Exceptionally fast and shifty. Doubles as a defensive halfback on occasion. All-American defensive end at Michigan State. Detroit's third draft choice in 1951. Born in Adrian, Mich.



Branch first made his presence undeniable on special teams. He continued impressing the coaching staff when he earned defensive snaps and logged his first career start when Alabama took on Mississippi State on Halloween 2020. The freshman seized the opportunity, logging seven tackles and two pass deflections.

Back to the Front! Lions card back du jour...

Glenn Presnell
"Squeezing" the ball is one of the first lessons backfield players must master. Note the way Glenn Presnell of the Detroit Lions has the ball cradled in the hollow of his arm, the hand making a basket over the end and the oval pressed tightly against his ribs. Tendency among young players is to let the ball dangle loosely when about to be tackled and causing a fumble with the tacklers shock. A back must learn instinctively to hug the leather hard at the moment of impact. Many a fine open field run has been spoiled because the carrier fumbles into the hands of the other team and offsets his long gain. "Hug that ball." Glenn Presnell, University of Nebraska, All American Halfback, 1927, Best place kicker in National League. 5 ft. 10 inches, 188 pounds.
