Don Currivan: Football End


Donald F. Currivan (March 6, 1920 – May 16, 1956) was an American football end. He played seven seasons in the National Football League (NFL) for the Chicago Cardinals (1943), the Boston Yanks (1945–1948), and the Los Angeles Rams (1948–1949). Currivan also played for "Card-Pitt" in 1944, a team that was the result of a temporary merger between the Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. The teams' merger was result of the manning shortages experienced league-wide due to World War II. Currivan played college football at Boston College. He died of a cerebral hemorrhage at age 36.
