Don Brumm - DE

Don Brumm was the Cardinals' 1st-round pick in 1963, and was their starting right defensive end for his first 4 seasons. 
 
After spending most of 1967 on the bench (making only 4 starts), he returned to the lineup in 1968, starting every game (this time at left end) and made his only Pro Bowl. 
 
Brumm only played 4 games in 1969 but started them all, so I have to believe he missed the other 10 games due to injury. 
 
From 1970-71, he played for the Eagles, appearing in 16 games over 2 seasons but only starting once. 
 
He returned to the Cardinals for his final season (1972). 
 
I first became aware of him during his time with the Eagles, which is probably when I bought this card (not having collected in 1969). 
 
 
Teams: Cardinals (1963-69, 72), Eagles (1970-71)
