Monty Stickles
Montford Anthony Stickles (August 16, 1938 – September 3, 2006) was an American professional football tight end in the National Football League (NFL) for the San Francisco 49ers and the New Orleans Saints. A first round draft pick in the 1960 NFL draft, Stickles was a sure-handed receiver and rugged — and sometimes dirty — blocker who carved out a nine year NFL career.
As a collegian at Notre Dame, Stickles was twice recognized as an All-American, achieving consensus status as a senior in 1959.
Monty Stickles was born in Kingston, New York, on August 16, 1938, and grew up in Pughkeepsie, the son of Frances and Montfort Stickles. He was a graduate of Poughkeepsie High School.
Stickles played End (offensive) and kicked extra points for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish from 1957 to 1959, wearing number 80. As a collegian he stood 6'4" tall and weighed 215 pounds and gained a place on the Notre Dame squad as a three-year starter.
In 1957, he had 11 catches for 183 yards and three touchdowns. He also led the team in scoring with 11 extra points, one field goal, and three touchdowns for 32 points, made 27 tackles, and broke up two passes. In 1958, he led in minutes played and scored 60 points while making 31 tackles. He also led the team in receiving with 20 catches for 328 yards and seven touchdowns. While playing for Notre Dame he accumulated 42 career receptions for 746 yards and 12 touchdowns, kicked 42 extra points and five field goals, made 110 tackles, broke up six passes, recovered three fumbles, and blocked one kick.
Stickles was a two-time first-team All-American, gaining consensus status as a senior in 1959. During this senior season, he finished 9th in Heisman Trophy voting. He also participated in the East-West Shrine the College All-Star games prior to entering the NFL.
Stickles received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology from Notre Dame in 1960.
Stickles was the first-round-draft-pick of the San Francisco 49ers, who made him the 11th pick of the 1960 NFL draft. He also was chosen in the first round by the Los Angeles Chargers of the newly formed American Football League (AFL) in 1960.
