ASU's 50 Best Professional Athletes No. 42: NFL linebacker Bob Breunig

Collegiate All-American? Check. Pro Bowl selections? Check. Super Bowl ring? Check. College Football Hall of Fame? Check.

Reaching those accolades alone should define a successful football career, as former Arizona State Sun Devils middle linebacker Bob Breunig amassed them over a four years in Tempe and nine seasons with the Dallas Cowboys.

Coming off a decorated collegiate career where he helped ASU to two WAC championships in 1972 and 1973 while becoming the conference's two-time Defensive Player of the Year and a First-Team All-American, Breunig was a third round (70th overall) pick for the Dallas Cowboys in the 1975 NFL Draft.
