Lipscomb didn't attend college and was picked up as an undrafted free agent by the Los Angeles Rams. He played for the Rams for three seasons from 1953-1955. He then played for the Baltimore Colts for five seasons. In two of the seasons he played for the Colts, 1958 and 1959, he earned a spot in the Pro Bowl. He then went on to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers for two seasons. During his '59-'60 & '60-'61 off-seasons, Lipscomb worked as a professional wrestler. He was the first modern day protypical Defensive Lineman. If he hadn't tragically died of a heroin overdose, many believe he'd be in the FB HOF. We offer an original Lawrence Schiller (stamped on back) 8x8 photograph of Big Daddy wrestling (many NFL players would wrestle during the off-season).
