Canadian football player
Vernon Austin Graham (August 6, 1924 – March 22, 2010) was a Canadian football player with the Calgary Stampeders.
A native of Calgary, Graham joined his hometown Stamps in 1947.[1] He made the unfortunate mistake of sitting out the 1948 season, missing a Grey Cup championship.[2] He returned in 1949 and made a trip to the Grey Cup final (a defeat to the Montreal Alouettes,) and was also an all-star and won the Dave Dryburgh Memorial Trophy as scoring leader (with 58 points on 2 touchdowns, 27 converts and 7 field goals.)[3] He finished football in 1951. He died on March 22, 2010, aged 85.[4]
