Re: LSU Tiger All-SEC Player John Wood Dies, 56

Wood was a three-year, defensive lineman letterman for the Tigers from 1970-72. In his three seasons, LSU went 27-8-1, finished those seasons in the top 10 in one or more polls and went to three straight bowl games. He shared team MVP honors with quarterback Bert Jones in 1972, when LSU allowed only 12 touchdowns in a 9-2-1 season.

He came to LSU from Lake Charles. After being drafted in the third round of the NFL draft — the 70th overall pick — by the Denver Broncos, Wood made Baton Rouge his home.

Anyone know how he did in the NFL?...can't find anything on him.
