Stevan Clark - Professional Career

Professional Career

He played in only 7 games in an injury plagued 1981 NFL season, and was placed on Injured Reserve on September 1, 1981, but was reactivated a month later and saw special teams duty and some DE time before injuring his left knee in a 17-6 loss to the New York Jets. He was replaced on Injured Reserve on November 6. Coaches and teammates said he had great speed and was an excellent pass rusher and would most likely compete for a starting job in the 1982 season but after re-injuring his knee in the off-season, Clark never made it back to the NFL.

Famous quotes containing the words professional and/or career:

    Many young girls are ... becoming trained nurses, whose gentle ministrations in the sick-room, skilled touch, patient watchfulness and unwearied vigils, are as great factors in the care of the sick, as are the professional physicians.
    Lydia Hoyt Farmer (1842–1903)

    A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
