Former NFL quarterback Norm Snead dies at age 84

Norm Snead, an NFL quarterback for 16 seasons in the 1960s and '70s who was a four-time Pro Bowl selection, has died. He was 84.

Snead died Sunday in Naples, Florida, his brother, Danny, told The Associated Press on Monday. A cause of death was not provided.

Snead was the second overall pick in the 1961 NFL draft, selected by Washington, and he also was taken 33rd by the Buffalo Bills in the American Football League draft that year. He chose Washington and played there for three seasons, with two Pro Bowl appearances, before being traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for Sonny Jurgensen and Claude Crabb.

Jurgensen, who was with Philadelphia when the Eagles won the league championship in 1960, became the face of the franchise for Washington, was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and was a broadcaster for the team for decades.
