Baron Beaumont returns from the calf

Baron Beaumont TE
Anvils

Baron Beaumont missed one game with a calf. He came back and put up 14.8 points.

Across four seasons: 2,407 yards from scrimmage, twenty-one touchdowns, sixty games. He got to 865 once. Not this time.

Twenty-four, and Newark, New Jersey before that. He is unfailingly polite and completely unknowable. Nobody planned any of it. He was cut twice before his twenty-fourth birthday.

Anvils are 1-4-1 through six weeks. Tank Callender is in year four of it. He is out of contract after this.

One more thing: he answers every question in exactly one sentence.

This feature ran in the paper in week 6 of 1991. The rest of the season is there too.
