Emmitt Smith Tribute to Daryl Johnston
|Daryl Johnston was considered one of the best fullbacks of his day, while blocking for Emmitt Smith, as Smith went on to become the all-time NFL rushing leader. Watch this video below during Emmitt Smith’s Hall of Fame speech. During this speech, Smith told Johnston to stand up, in which he made comments as part of a captivating and emotional tribute that brought tears not just to Smith but to everyone. There’s a special relationship between a running back and a fullback. They spend so many hours in a film room, weight room, sidelines, team charters, buses, meals, you name it. They essentially are each other’s right hand men. This sheds light on the importance of a teammate and how no one, no matter how good one is, can do it all themselves without the help of others.
