Jack McBride's football career, which spanned the late 1920s and early 1930s, embodied the versatility that defined the early years of the NFL. He excelled at multiple positions, showcasing his athleticism and adaptability throughout his ten seasons in the league. He was an important player in the New York Giants' first few seasons and helped endear the Big Apple fans to Tim Mara's franchise.

We continue with the story of the New York Football Giants in this fifth part of our celebratory series on the franchise's first 100 seasons.

I appreciate Larry Schmitt for sharing his collected images and knowledge of this Giants legend.
