Ron Sellers - 6’4, 189 pounds - wouldn’t enter the NFL until 1969.
But he did some things in 1968.
Fresh off All-American honors in 1967, Sellers’ put his lanky frame - which had earned him the nickname “Jingle Joints” - to work in Bill Peterson’s pass-heavy offense in 1968. At one point, Maryland in an effort simply to contain the superstar triple-teamed him, limiting him to only five catches. But those five catches went for 173 yards - a whopping 34.6 yards per catch - with another pass drawing an interference call.
And that was just the season-opener.
