These are the first two guys I thought of. Homan even made it onto this list: http://nflfootballjournal.blogspot.com/ ... -time.html

Players in general were smaller in Homan's era though - it wasn't that uncommon to have a small back or two on the team. Gus Dorias was quite small and the recent bio that came out on him implied that had a lot to do with the brevity of his pro football career even though that was actually pre-NFL.
