BILL DUDLEY. Photograph signed: "'Bullet Bill' Dudley". Sepia, 8x10. Hall of Famer Dudley must have firmly believed that the ball belonged to him. He wanted it all the time. And it seemed there wasn't anything he couldn't do with it. Dudley, who was nicknamed "Bullet Bill," demonstrated from the start that his relatively small size and lack of blazing speed wasn't a detriment. Dudley's nine-year National Football League career was unique in that he played three seasons each with the Steelers (1942, 1945-1946), Detroit Lions (1947-1949), and Washington Redskins (1950-1951, 1953). In the first game of his pro career he ran for a 55-yard touchdown and in his second game scored on a kickoff return. He finished his rookie season as the league's leading rusher with 696 yards and earned all-league honors. Six times Dudley was named first- or second-team All-NFL and was also named to three Pro Bowls. Fine condition.
