This is a sad day for Iggles fans. Concrete Charlie has passed away. Just caught it on the scroll during the Federer vs Raonic match.

He's remembered for sitting on Frank Gifford, to secure the Eagles only NFL championship.
In the 60s, pro football players needed summer jobs to make ends meet. Chuck worked for Morrissey Concrete, in Philly, as a concrete salesman (hence his nickname of Concrete Charlie). Mostly they used him for PR, and he was great at it. He sometimes stopped at our construction trailer, in the early 70s. He was a big man, with big hands. His fingers were like his nose, they went in several directions.
The Bednarik linebacker award is named in his honor. It was great meeting you Chuck. RIP.
