collarbone costs Beckett Morrow 3 games

Gridiron Wire, league desk

Beckett Morrow QB
Prospectors

Beckett Morrow will miss 3 games with a collarbone. The backup inherits the job for now.

He has 6,050 yards from scrimmage in three seasons, and seventy-seven touchdowns. He got to 2,350 once. Not this time.

He is twenty-three, out of Tijuana, Mexico. He is the one the young players actually ask. The route here: the second man taken at his position out of Marchbanks.

Prospectors are 4-1 through five weeks. Solomon Fields is in year three of it.

He has never once been photographed smiling on a sideline, and always has.

This feature ran in the paper in week 5 of 1980. The rest of the season is there too.
