Jack Chester Stroud (January 29, 1928 – June 1, 1994) was an American professional football player who was an offensive lineman for the New York Giants of the National Football League (NFL).[1] He played college football for the Tennessee Volunteers and was selected in the fifth round of the 1951 NFL draft. He was a member of the 1956 Giants championship squad.
While at the University of Tennessee, Stroud was also a member of the track and field team and twice placed first in the javelin throw (1950, 1951) at the Southeastern Conference (SEC) meet.[2]
In December 1970, Stroud's son, Jack Jr., died at age 19 from complications following shoulder surgery.[3] The younger Stroud was a freshman football player at Tennessee.[3]
