Question

LeGarrette Blount ran for over 1,000 yards and helped New England to the Super Bowl last year. Now he’s going to play against them in a Super Bowl. Nobody’s ever done that before. What running back, however, has done something sort of similar: run for over 1,000 yards, helping his team win a Super Bowl, then later in his career joined the roster of the team they beat in that game? This player didn't appear in a Super Bowl with the second team.

Answer

Tony Dorsett, who ran for 1,007 yards as a rookie in 1977, capping that season with a Super Bowl over Denver. Dorsett finished his career by running for 703 yards for the Broncos in 1988. Denver played in Super Bowls following both the 1987 and 1989 seasons, but Dorsett didn't play for them in either of those years.
