1980 Profile: Lucius Sanford

Linebacker
No. 57
Georgia Tech
Playing in every game for Buffalo in his two years as a pro, Lucius has started every game since the second week of his rookie season. His 116 tackles and five quarterback sacks both led the team in '78 and were followed by 112 tackles and two interceptions last year. Lucius blocked two field goals in one game against the Kansas City Chiefs in '78, the first Buffalo Bill ever to accomplish this, and in '79 scored his first touchdown as a pro by blocking a punt and returning it against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Lucius was a starter for four years at Georgia Tech and captain as a senior. As a senior, he was a Sporting News All-American and an AP second team All-American.
