— Mike Klis (@mikeklis) August 17, 2022
Riley was my No. 1 (65 INTs).
But come on, Randy Gradishar arguably most decorated.
And it's bigger than Gradishar. It's about great Orange Crush D having ZERO players in HOF. #9sports

A year ago myself, Jason Bailey, @TheAce513 and @zimwhodey put out the Rattler a documentary to tell the great Ken Riley’s story. @bengaljims_BTR was also nice enough to let us use his videos of Riley’s teammates for the doc.
