Question

What are the career statistics of Washington Redskin football player Larry Brown?

Answer

Known by Redskins fans as the Diesel, Riggins was the classic workhorse running back. He attended Centralia High School in Centralia, Kansas, which is now located at 507 John Riggins Avenue. Educated at the University of Kansas, he broke Gale Sayers's career rushing record for the school and led the Jayhawks to the Big 8 conference championship in 1968, KU's last championship in football (through the 2005 season). He was the first-round draft pick for the New York Jets in the 1971 draft. He spent five years with the Jets as he became the New York Jets MVP in 1972 and 1975. In that 1975 season, he made the pro bowl and was the first Jet to rush for 1,000 yards in a season (1,005). He eventually signed as a free agent with the Washington Redskins in 1976. He remained with Washington until retiring in 1985.
