Happy 80th birthday to Doug Van Horn<\/a>! Van Horn played guard for the Detroit Lions in 1966, and for the New York Giants from 1968 to 1979<\/a>. Sadly, though he had a long NFL career, he never played on a playoff team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van Horn played college football at Ohio State. He was named an All-American in 1965.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For an offensive lineman, Van Horn appeared on an impressive number of football cards. Today’s card of the day is his second card, a 1974 Topps<\/a>. You can see the rest of his cards<\/a> in the Gallery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
