	Athletes - Don Floyd

Don Floyd (born 1938) was an American college and professional football player. The wiry defensive lineman earned All-America honors at Texas Christian University and stayed in Texas for his professional career. He was a draft choice of the American Football League's Houston Oilers in 1960, the league's first year, and was selected as a defensive end on the American Football League All-Star team in 1961, 1962 and 1963. In the early 1960s, Floyd was among the best. Lining up primarily as a defensive end, he used a combination of strength and speed to establish a presence to be accounted for by the opposition on every play.

He played in four American Football League Championships, helping the Oilers win the league's first two titles in 1960 and 1961. Don Floyd is on the Oilers' All-Time Team.
