Being a Jets season ticket holder at Giants Stadium in the the Meadowlands. I took my 6 year old son Ryan to the games and we had the opportunity to meet Larry Grantham in the parking lot. Larry pulled my little guy out of the crowd and signed his Jet's cap and showed him his Superbowl Ring. It was a moment that we'll never forget. So Sorry for Your Loss, he was a Great Person.

Mr. Grantham was there from the beginning of the AFL, with The Titans (later known as The Jets), and he played with distinction into the post-merger era. His coach on the field smarts, tenacity, and toughness, made up for his height and weight disadvantage at the Linebacking position.

AFL and Titans/Jets icon, a well-respected teammate and opponent, and well-deserved member of his team's Ring of Honor.

Rest In Peace.
