Clendon Thomas, a College Football Hall of Fame inductee who was named to an NFL Pro Bowl as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, died Monday.
Thomas was an All-America running back for the University of Oklahoma in the 1950s, a member of two consensus national championship teams.
After getting drafted by the Los Angeles Rams and playing four seasons there, Thomas played 96 games for the Steelers from 1962-68.
He totaled 23 interceptions in that time, including eight in 1963 while earning Pro Bowl and second-team AP NFL All Pro honors.
In 2007, Thomas was named to the Steelers’ official “Legends Team” of stars from the franchise prior to 1970.
