He was a crowd favorite and made 23 tackles in a single game against his former Denver Broncos. He was drafted to the Miami Dolphins in 1966 as the team's major name player. During the 1968 season, he knocked out two police officers in an altercation and was traded to the San Diego Chargers. Wahoo never played a game for San Diego and started wrestling full-time.
