Peter Brock – Football

Pete Brock1(Born July 14, 1954) The Brock brothers, Peter and Stan from Vernonia, were just two of four football players in the family. Born four years apart, they would follow very similar paths to long and successful grid iron careers.

Both starred at Jesuit High School; both played collegiately at Colorado; both were the 12th overall selection of their respective NFL drafts and both played in the Super Bowl.

Pete came first, a high school and college All-American as a center, he was named to Colorado’s team of the century. He played his entire 12-year NFL career for the New England Patriots.

He proved to be one of the more versatile linemen ever to play the game, filling in as a guard, tackle, wing back, as well as long snapper. He played four different positions in one series of a game and made one career catch for a touchdown. Pete Brock lasted a dozen years in the league despite a series of knee injuries.

The Brock brothers shared one more experience following their careers, both have served as NFL broadcasters.
