ACCOLADES:
World Bowl MVP XV
NOTES:
Casey was part of a collection of oversized team issued postcard autographs I got from a friend of mine. I was tickled that I was able to get the World Bowl XV MVP’s autograph among them.
Erik Williams played for tiny NAIA Central State, OH.
A small school find by the Cowboys, he was selected in the 3rd round of the 1991 draft.
Did not become starter until 1992, when he dislodged starter Nate Newton from his RT position.
Sat out a good portion of the 1994 season due to a freak car accident that he was injured badly in.
Played for the Cowboys from 1991-2000 and one final season in Baltimore.
ACCOLADES:
Pro Bowl 1993, 1996, 1997, 1999
All Pro 1993, 1995, 1996
Central Ohio Hall of Fame 2010
Fleer 1995, #102
NOTES:
Erik was nicknamed Big E, but for some reason we heard Big Kat a lot. I never got Erik at training camp all those years ago. He just always seemed to skip by me.

The Panthers later assigned him to NFL Europe in 2000, where Matt played for the Rhein Fire, backing up Danny Wuerffel.
Claimed off of waivers by the Seattle Seahawks he’d be on and off the team’s practice squad during 2000, before the Panthers reclaimed him.

Lytle joined the Alouettes in the CFL for 2002, backing up Anthony Calvillo at QB.
He then was in camp with the Ravens in 2003, and then later the Colorado Crush of the Arena league, but ultimately retired after failing to make the roster of the Crush in 2004.
