Print Edition
Miami Dolphins legend Nick Buoniconti, a key figure in the franchise’s Super Bowl-winning unbeaten season in 1972, has died, his family confirmed on Wednesday. He was 78. Buoniconti helped the Dolphins win back-to-back Super Bowls in 1972 and 1973, the highlight of a career which spanned two decades between 1962 and 1976. After his retirement, the Hall of Famer was one of the driving forces in setting up the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, a leading research and treatment centers for spinal cord injuries. Buoniconti was inspired to help set up the center after his son Marc was left paralyzed while playing college football.
