LaDainian Tomlinson[sc name=”Jets Center Right” ]

As one of the most electrifying running backs ever to lace them up, the other “LT” rushed for more than 1,200 yards in seven different seasons. LT was that dual-threat out of the backfield, equally as dangerous in the passing game as he was in the rushing game.

He gained over 18,000-yards from scrimmage in his 11-year career. Like all the greats, he joined the Jets at the tail end of his career, playing just two seasons in East Rutherford.

Hall of Fame Worthy:

Tomlinson made five trips to the Pro Bowl and selected as an All-Pro six times. In 2006, he was named the NFL Most Valuable Player. With the Chargers, he led the league in rushing yards and touchdowns in three seasons. LT was a player you will remember your whole life if you had the opportunity to see him live.
