Why does it say Redskins 1950 in the infobox?
Removed it – although there should be probably a discussion at some point on whether it is appropriate to include the years when the players were there in the offseason (e.g. currently, if someone was signed in e.g. May 1950 then released in June 1950, we'd list them as '1950' in the infobox, but if they were there in 1949 as well we'd list just '1949', which seems a bit odd imo).
The infobox years get really cluttered if you do it like. If you went to Josh Johnson's page and did that, the infobox would look a little silly and be less informative. Most NFL players get cut in camp the next year. There would be very few one-year infobox spans if we did it like that. Yankees10 removes them too.
Anything on later life? He's almost 100 years old, there's might be something.
I don't remember finding any other coverage on his later life.
