A former wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers has sadly passed away.
John Isenbarger, who was drafted by the team in 1970, is dead at 76, according to his alma mater.
“Indiana University mourns the loss of All-American & IU Hall of Famer John Isenbarger,” the school said in a brief statement on Thursday night.
Indiana also detailed the many accolades Isenbarger collected during his impressive college career.
“Won football letters in 1967, 1968 and 1969…tailback and punter on Indiana’s 1967 Big Ten Co-Championship and Rose Bowl team…Indiana’s Most Valuable Player in 1969…first team All-Big Ten in 1969…earned All-American honors in both 1967 and 1969…set Indiana season and career rushing records…led Hoosiers in rushing and punting three straight years and had an IU record 1,217 rushing yards in 1969…played in the East-West, All-American, Hula Bowl and College All-Star games…played professionally with the San Francisco 49ers.”
Isenbarger played as a tailback and punter in college but was moved to the wideout position in his third season with the Niners.
He spent all of his four-year career with the NFC team, recording 370 yards and two touchdowns.
Total Pro Sports extends condolences to Isenbarger’s family, friends, and loved ones.
