Which Pro Football Hall of Fame running back never played in a Super Bowl?

Orenthal James "O. J." Simpson born on July 9, 1947, nicknamed The Juice, is a former American football running back, broadcaster, actor, and convicted felon. He is also pro running back who never played in a Super Bowl game. He played professionally in the National Football League (NFL) as a running back for 11 seasons. He was with the Buffalo Bills from 1969 to 1977 and with the San Francisco 49ers from 1978 to 1979. Simpson was the first NFL player to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a season, a mark he set in 1973.

Simpson was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1983 and the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1985. After retiring from professional football, he had a career as a football broadcaster and actor.

Concerning Super Bowl games, in Super Bowl XII with rookie running back Tony Dorsett, the Dallas Cowboys had a great offense weapon. Despite not becoming a full-time starter until the 10th game of the regular season, Dorsett led his team that season with 1,007 yards. This game however was dominated by the defense of the Cowboys, who won over Denver 27-10. In Super Bowl XVII, John Riggins put the Redskins on his back and led them to a 27-17 win over the Miami Dolphins for the franchise's first Super Bowl title. Noting Super Bowl XXXIV, this game featured veteran running back, Eddie George, who rushed for 95 yards, caught two passes from Steve McNair for 35 yards, and scored two touchdowns as the Tennessee Titans defeated the St. Louis Rams 23-16.

It sure would be nice if we could avoid questions that glorify murderers who are rich enough to buy their way out of a conviction and a life term in prison. His privilege made him believe he was above the law and getting away with murder further emboldened him into armed kidnapping for which he was convicted and imprisoned. They should have left him to rot there forever.

You can get away with a crime, especially with money to back you up. Of course, the glove didn't fit his it was wet and leather shrinks. Sorry I don't know

vinceguerrero

Donna R. O'Brien Moran

Why didn’t they mention that this Running Back was a murderer? That is what I will remember about him, always. He got away with a double homicide. 🤬

Horrible person!👹 it was so evident he commented two counts of first degree murder! Karma got him in the end though!👏(conceited on a huge level!)

I understand why so many people hate questions that bring to mind all of these monsters that have done unthinkable things, I too am disturbed by the images that they invoke. That being said, it is all a part of history, so must be acknowledged. We can't pick and choose.

I can't take credit for getting this one right. My thumb slipped before l could read the question. However it slipped in the right place. People at work were saying, "pray for OJ. You know he was falsely accused." The jury agreed. You people should have been the jury.
