norman hand’
Former Walterboro star and NFL player Norman Hand died Friday morning in Colleton County at the age of 37. A cause of death has not been released by the county coroner.
Hand was an honorable mention All-American by Parade Magazine and USA Today his senior season at Walterboro. He was also named the SCHSL Defensive Lineman of the Year in 1990.
He went on to play at the University of Mississippi after transferring from Itawamba Junior College. He had 3.5 sacks his senior year with the Rebels and was a second team All-SEC selection.
From there, Hand was drafted in the fifth round of the NFL Draft by the Miami Dolphins in 1995 and went on to have a 10 year career in the league playing with the San Diego Chargers, New Orleans Saints, Seattle Seahawks and the New York Giants.
He ended his pro career after the 2004 season with 22.5 sacks and 2 interceptions.
Hand was the first football player to reach the NFL from Walterboro.
His heart was big too. Pro sports are often very homophobic. I once saw a TV talk show host ask Norman if he thought players’ sexual “preference” could cause problems. Norman said, “No, I think it’s the people who worry about their teammates’ private lives who cause the problems. They need to mind their own business about things that don’t hurt them.” He already had nine-tenths of my heart, and I gave him the tenth tenth at that moment.

No. 21 Is Done In San Diego: Chargers Release LT
No. 21 Is Done In San Diego: Chargers Release LT, SAN DIEGO (AP)—The slashing, dazzling runs came less frequently. The yards didn’t pile up as easily as in previous seasons. LaDainian Tomlinson(notes) was slowing down because of injuries and age, becoming less and less the face of the franchise as his role was
reduced in a pass-happy offense. On Monday, he was released by the San Diego Chargers, a franchise he helped revive with a brilliant nine-year run in which he became one of the NFL’s greatest running backs. The move had been expected for some time. Tomlinson, one of the most beloved athletes in San Diego sports history, got the word in a meeting with team president Dean Spanos.
“I told him that in the 26 years that I’ve been in this business, it was probably the hardest thing I’ve had to do,†Spanos told The Associated Press. “I’m not close to a lot of the players, but there’s a handful that I’ve been close with, and he’s probably the closest. It was really difficult to tell him. But out of respect, I wanted to tell him earlier rather than later.â€
