    I saw him last summer at his HOF induction and he did not look well. RIP.

    RIP Hickerson.

    Yeah, he did not look good at the HOF. That was cool how Jim Brown helped wheel him in.

    Sad but his health was declining. I had a professor who is married to a former Browns kicker (70's & early 80's) and was friends with him. She said he was not doing well when he was inducted and at times was completely out of it. She also said he was quite the lady's man.
