Hornung Options

As quarterback Bart Starr (#15) watches, halfback Paul Hornung (#5) throws the option pass to an unknown receiver, while Forrest Gregg is on the ground, having provided the necessary blocking to complete the play. This is on a play against the New York Giants in Green Bay’s City Stadium (later Lambeau Field). It’s not clear why the Giants’ player standing at left has no logo on the right side of his helmet.
