Dante Lavelli
Dante Bert Joseph "Gluefingers" Lavelli is an American footballer who played for the Cleveland Browns at the All-American Football Conference and National Football Federation from 1946 to 1956. Along with midfielder Otto Graham, the late winger Marion Motley, who replaced Lou Groza and fellow Mac Speedie, Lavelli was an integral part of the Browns team that has won seven championships in his 11-season career. Lavelli is known for his sturdy hands and ability to improvise on the pitch. He is also known for his critical handling, earning him the nickname "Mr. Clutch". "Lavelli has one of the strongest hands I have ever seen," Browns manager Paul Brown once said. "When he goes up to pass with a defender, you can almost always count on him to land with the ball." Lavelli grew up in Hudson, Ohio and played football, baseball, and basketball at his local high school.
