One More Season And It's Over For Nelsen
Cleveland Browns quarterback Bill Nelsen, a nine-year veteran, says knee pain is chronic and he plans to retire after the 1972 season. He notes fluid buildup, weekly drainages, damaged ligaments in the right knee, and that the left knee remains relatively strong. He credits the knee brace for support but it limited movement, yet he valued playing for a winning Browns squad.
