Watching an old film clip on ESPN Classic. Shows Rod running out of the backfield wearing number 82 apparently he ran for 150 plus yards one game. My question is was he listed as a tightend ? That would explain the 82. Just curious.....

He came into the league as a TE and was converted to RB a few years later.

Played both. Was one of the first H-backs I could remember when the role was still really being defined.

I played fantasy football that year. He was listed as a TE at the start of the year, so commish let him be played at TE. Best fantasy TE ever.

And to think Rod Bernstine and Glyn Milburn were ahead of Terrell Davis on the Broncos depth chart going into training camp of TD's rookie year.

I remember he always used to leave his feet when running into the pile, which made him susceptible to injuries.

Off topic, watch Terry Glenn when he catches the ball. Rarely are his feet on the ground.

Didn't Herschel Walker have a problem of always leaving his feet to catch a pass?

rod bernstein played tight end at Texas A&M Univ. He was then drafted by the San Diego Chargers as a tight end. They later converted him to running back while he kept his #82. He later was traded to Denver and still wore his # 82 jersey.

I mentioned it here in the fantasy HOF thread...

He was a stud for me from '90 to '93. 1188 combined yards in '93. HBack deluxe.

And that was a time when they were a couple good TEs and then almost nothing.

Berstein, Butts, and Bienemy = $$$

Must have been difficult just running on his ankles like that.

He must have been the inspiration for Colston.
