Walt Garrison (Walt) Quotes
My rookie year, he helped me so much. Him and Don Perkins, the fullback that was ahead of me. Perk helped me a lot. I told him one time, I said, "Perk, you're helping me? I'm trying to beat you out.” He said, "Walt, I want to go to the playoffs. I want to go to the Super Bowl. If you're better than me, you oughtta be playing instead of me.” But I never was better than him. If he hadn't retired, I'd still be sitting on the bench.
