March 20 Report: Pete Metzelaars

Pete Metzelaars was one of the finer tight ends -- not to mention reliable -- during the 1980s and 1990s. His career spanned 16 seasons and he played for four teams, the Seattle Seahawks (1982-1984), Buffalo Bills (1985-1994), Carolina Panthers (1995) and Detroit Lions (1996-1997).

Metzelaars finished his career with 383 catches, good for 3,686 yards and 29 TDs. At the time of his retirement, his 235 games were the most ever played by a tight end in NFL history.

At the time of this writing, Metzelaars is an offensive line coach for the Indianapolis Colts.
