Jermaine Inchcape WR
Hellcats

Jermaine Inchcape returned from a high ankle after one game and logged 125 yards. No visible limitation.

Across seven seasons: 6,465 yards from scrimmage, thirty-four touchdowns, 116 games. He has never had a year like it.

He is twenty-eight, out of Newark, New Jersey. Around the building he keeps his own counsel and his own hours. Nobody planned any of it. He was a first-round pick out of Fort Ridley, and everybody saw it coming.

The club is 6-5. Hakeem Jones is in year six of it.

He has worn the same undershirt since his rookie year and had it repaired twice, and always has.

This feature ran in the paper in week 12 of 1983. The rest of the season is there too.
