Bobby Dillon was an American professional football player who spent his entire eight-year career as a safety with the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League. Born on February 23, 1930, he was an All-American at Texas, where he also returned kicks and played halfback, and the Packers selected him in the third round of the 1952 draft. After childhood accidents cost him an eye, he played his whole career with a glass eye yet became one of the most successful defensive backs of his era, with 52 career interceptions. He died on August 22, 2019.
