9) Joe Walton

Years: 1961-1964

He may not have been the NY Giants’ tight-end for long, but Joe Walton was a part of some legendary moments in Giants’ history.

Remember when Larry Donnell scored three touchdowns in one game? Yeah – Walton did that, twice – in one season. At a time where passing the ball wasn’t a premium, Walton was a nightmare for opposing defenses in 1962.

Famously, Walton was on the receiving end of history – catching Y.A. Tittle’s seventh touchdown in his single-game record-tying performance.
