Silas Traded to New York by Cardinals
The St Louis Cardinals traded defensive end Sam Silas to the New York Giants for a 1970 draft pick on Wednesday. The Cardinals also sent veteran linebacker Jerry Hillebrand to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a draft choice and acquired defensive back Clarence Childs from the Giants for a 1969 selection. The moves were called coincidental by the club. Silas, 6 4 250, from Southern Illinois University, played five seasons with St Louis and made the Pro Bowl in 1966. Hillebrand had earlier been moved from the Giants to the Cardinals via Minnesota after a knee injury. Childs led the NFL in kickoff and punt returns before losing his starter role to Willie Williams last season.
