Holy Moly it’s the 24th Already! Happy Xmas Eve dudes! Let’s stick to 1970’s NFL today, and a cool cat rocking the # 24 jersey, Mr. Otis Armstrong! In just his second season out of Purdue Otis earned All-Pro honors while leading the NFL in rushing for the 1974 season. He accumulated 1,407 yards on the ground along with 9 TD’s for the Denver Broncos. On November 28th, 1974, Thanksgiving Day , Otis led the Broncos with 144 yards, & a touchdown, during a 31-28 victory over the Detroit Lions. Little bit of trivia for you guys. This was also the last game the Lions played at Tiger Stadium, before moving to the Silver Dome.
