SEDONA, Ariz. (AP) – Ed ”Big Mo” Modzelewski (Mo-juh-LESS-key), a former star fullback who led the University of Maryland to an unbeaten season in 1951 and later won an NFL championship with the Cleveland Browns, has died. He was 86.
Services are pending at Greer’s Funeral Home in Sedona, Arizona, for Modzelewski, who died Saturday.
Modzelewski was born on Jan. 13, 1929, in West Natrona, Pennsylvania, where his Polish-born father was a coal miner.
He teamed up with his little brother, Dick, a defensive tackle nicknamed ”Little Mo,” with the Terrapins and later squared off against him in the NFL when Ed’s Browns faced Dick’s New York Giants.
