Hal Puddy

Harold Marvin Puddy (August 18, 1925 – January 31, 1975) was an American professional football player who played at the tackle position on both offense and defense. He played college football for Oregon State and professional football for the San Francisco 49ers.

Early life Puddy was born in 1925 in Hood River, Oregon. He attended Hood River High School. He received the U. G. Dubach Award for Citizenship while at Oregon State. Puddy later recalled his time with the 49ers: "I was a tackle, light but quick. Football was kind of boring, though, because we only worked out for two hours a day."

In January 1975, he died at age 49, from an apparent heart attack after jogging in Port Angeles.
