And it’s a good bet Jim Kleinsasser will also be on the list.
The pair had opposite playing styles. Moss was an athletic freak who could blow by anyone on the field, and Kleinsasser’s rugged style led to a successful career as a fullback and tight end.
Yet the players with starkly contrasting attributes were also good friends beginning from the time Kleinsasser was a second-round pick in 1999 out of the University of North Dakota.
“When I came in, I was kind of the ‘Aw shucks, gee whiz, look at all of this’ guy coming from North Dakota,” Kleinsasser said.
