Jim Rockford (gridiron football)

James "Jim" Rockford (born c. 1940s) was an American football player who primarily played as a defensive back. While not a widely known or extensively documented figure in professional or collegiate football history, records indicate he had a brief career in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Sources suggest he played in the Continental Football League (CFL), a minor professional league that operated in the United States during that era. His playing career was relatively short, and he did not achieve significant notoriety at the professional level. Details concerning his college football career, if any, are scarce. Following his football career, Rockford pursued other ventures, and further information about his life is limited in publicly accessible sources. He is not related to the fictional television character of the same name.
