Evidence: Robert Craig Svihus (born June 21, 1943) is a former American football offensive tackle in the American Football League (AFL) and the National Football League (NFL) for the Oakland Raiders and New York Jets. Svihus was selected by the Oakland Raiders in the third round (19th overall) of the 1965 AFL Draft and by the Dallas Cowboys in the fourth round (53rd overal) of the 1965 NFL Draft. He chose to sign with the Oakland Raiders, becoming a starter at left tackle as a rookie, to protect quarterback Tom Flores. He would keep the job until 1969, while protecting quarterback Daryle Lamonica and missing only one game. On August 26, 1971, he was traded to the New York Jets in exchange for a second round pick (#39-John Babinecz).
