Nearly a century ago, the Staten Island Stapletons were an NFL team for four seasons from 1929-1932.
Like many teams in the early years of the NFL that folded long ago, there is little to remember about the Staten Island Stapletons. While several other teams that later became defunct won championships, such as the Akron Pros, Canton Bulldogs and Frankfor Yellow Jackets, the Stapletons went just 14-22-9. They only had one Hall of Fame player, Ken Strong.
