Lance Rentzel Thomas Lance Rentzel (born October 14, 1943) is a former American football flanker in the National Football League (NFL) for the Minnesota Vikings, Dallas Cowboys and the Los Angeles Rams. He played college football at the University of Oklahoma.
Wendell Tucker Wendell Edward Tucker (born September 4, 1943) is a former professional American football player who played wide receiver for four seasons for the Los Angeles Rams. Tucker spent most of his first season on the "taxi-squad" while learning behind the Rams' starting flanker Bernie Casey. Tucker saw action in 10 of the team's 14 games in 1968 (catching only 7 passes but 4 of them went for touchdowns), and then became the starting flanker after Casey's retirement. The 1969 season would prove to be his most productive as, playing opposite wide receiver Jack Snow, he caught 38 passes for 629 yards and 7 touchdowns, including a 93 yarder vs. the 49ers for the Coastal Division champion Rams. Tucker returned in 1970 but was hampered by injuries and caught only 12 passes in 12 games. In May 1971, Tucker was traded along with Billy Truax to the Dallas Cowboys for receiver Lance Rentzel. However, unable to regain his trademark speed because of a knee injury, Tucker retired before the start of the 1971 season.
