Dawson was a first-round draft pick out of Purdue by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1957 but was unable to get any significant playing time with the Steelers or in his two years with the Cleveland Browns in 1960 and 1961."I remember Paul Brown saying, 'Hey, there's a bunch of sons of rich people. This is a hobby for them,'" Dawson recalled."'It won't last more than a year or two. It's not going to be very long.

He was one of the best quarterbacks to ever play."Super Bowl IV"We were the underdog in that game," he recalled."We were supposed to get beat by a couple of touchdowns. Thankfully, we didn't believe that.
