John Brockington
Born and raised in Brooklyn in New York City, Brockington played halfback and fullback for the Ohio State Buckeyes from 1968 to 1970.Brockington played left halfback in 1968 and 1969, used primarily as a blocker for fullback Jim Otis and quarterback Rex Kern.In 1970, Brockington moved to the fullback position and was the featured running back in head coach Woody Hayes' offense.This was the result of typical wear-and-tear, the trade of Lane in July 1975 and changes in the Packers' playbook that did not take advantage of Brockington's abilities.[5][6][7] Signed by the struggling Kansas City Chiefs three weeks later,[8][9] he appeared in ten games for them and retired following the season.
