While a lot of fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers have likely heard of former offensive lineman Ray Mansfield before, there’s probably not too many of them that know that he had to kick more than once for the black and gold during the 1976 playoffs.
Thanks to a groin/gland/calf injury that Steelers regular kicker Roy Gerela was dealing with ahead of the Steelers 1976 Divisional Round playoff game against the Baltimore Colts, Mansfield, who at that point of his 14 year NFL career was the backup center behind Mike Webster, was asked to kick a fourth quarter extra-point following a 10-yard rushing touchdown by Reggie Harrison with a little less than 8 minutes remaining in the blowout contest.
