Steve Riley, a left tackle who played on two Super Bowl teams during his 11-year career with the Vikings, has died at age 68.
His death Thursday came a day after the funeral for his former center, Hall of Famer Mick Tingelhoff, who died Saturday because of Alzheimer's.
The Vikings announced Riley's passing; no cause was given.
Riley was a national champion at Southern Cal in 1972, and was an All-America as a senior in 1973. He was drafted in the first round (25th overall) by the Vikings in 1974.
At 6-5 and 270 pounds — big for the NFL at that time — he retired in 1984 after playing in 138 games, which is fourth most among tackles in team history.
