The Talk of Fame Network recently posted an article penned by noted sports writer Ron Borges revisiting Raiders Legend Lester Hayes candidacy for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Usually slathered in “stickum,” Hayes’ signature crouch at the line of scrimmage usually spelled doom for any quarterback who thought to throw his way. He finished his career, played entirely in Silver and Black, tied with Hall of Famer Willie Brown for the franchise lead with 39 interceptions.
His 1980 season is considered one of the greatest single campaigns for any player at any position.
