In 1965 , Symons was drafted by the NFL ' s Green Bay Packers in the 6th round ( 80th overall ) and by the AFL ' s Kansas City Chiefs in the 20th round ( 157 overall ) . He attended two Green Bay training camps , and almost made the team , but an injury led Vince Lombardi to cut him . CFL . BC . The BC Lions took a chance on Symons in . He only played 10 games , most at the defensive safety position . He rushed for only 20 yards , as the Lions were not convinced his knee injury had fully healed . At the end of the seasons , the Lions were eager to get the rights to the eventual CFL great and Hall of Famer Jim Young . Bill Symons was the second player in the trade that also sent all - star defensive lineman Dick Fouts to the Toronto Argonauts in exchange for Young , perhaps the only trade between Hall of Famers . Toronto . Toronto , with their new head coach Leo Cahill , was determined to turn their losing ways around , and in , Symons was given a chance . He did not disappoint , picking up 349 yards rushing and positioning himself as a starter . Everything came together in , when Symons rushed for 1 , 107 yards . He was the first Boatman , ever , to top the 1 , 000 yard plateau . Added to this record was his CFL ' s Most Outstanding Player Award , again a first for any Double Blue player , and a CFL All - Star at running back . In 1969 and 1970 , he shared running duties with Dave Raimey , obtained that year in a trade from Winnipeg . He gained 905 yards on the ground in 1969 and 908 in 1970 . In 1971 , Symons shared running back duties with Leon McQuay , when Raimey was converted to defensive back . Symons unhesitatingly turned to being a great blocking back , still gaining 418 yards in the bargain . The only thing missing was a trip to the Grey Cup , something that all Argonaut fans craved ( waiting since ) . In addition , Symons turned down an offer from the NFL ' s Denver Broncos ( in his home state ) to stay in Toronto . Unfortunately , their trip to the 59th Grey Cup ended in classic heartbreak , as the very same star , Leon McQuay , fumbled the ball deep in Calgary territory in the final minutes , a significant factor in the Argos loss . Being a blocking back , Symons ' final two season saw reduced statistics , though he rushed for 235 yards in 1972 and 358 in 1973 . Symons called it quits after 1973 to donate more time to his successful AFA Forest Products company . Symons also has a farm in Caledon , Ontario . Post football career , honours and awards . For his great performances as a running back , Symons was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 1997 .
