On this date in football, July 6, 2012, former Redskins’ offensive tackle Joe Jacoby turns 53 years old. Jacoby was named to four consecutive Pro Bowls from 1983-86, during which time he was twice named a first team All-Pro. He spent his entire 13-year career with the Redskins with whom he won 3 Super Bowl rings, and was a charter member of Washington’s famous group of offensive linemen known as “The Hogs.”
Today we send birthday wishes to Joe Jacoby, and look back at him and his famous pen-pals, the Hogs, as originally presented on Top Ten Nicknames.
