Kiick played in three Super Bowls for the franchise, and is the team's third all-time leading rusher. Kiick and fellow running back Larry Csonka garnered the nickname "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." Along with Csonka and another running back, Mercury Morris, he shocked the sports world by leaving the Dolphins for the World Football League in 1975, a league which folded before completing the season. He returned to the NFL for short stints with the Broncos and Redskins before retiring in 1977. The 1972 Miami Dolphins remain the only NFL team to complete the regular and postseason undefeated. Nationally known artist RON LEWIS has been making sports art, especially lithographs, since 1983. Surface creases. Corners and edges lightly creased. Faint printing defects in some areas. Otherwise, fine condition.
