Anthony Munoz ranked among the 100 best NFL players of all time

Anthony Munoz, a Cincinnati Bengals legend, has been ranked among the top 100 NFL players of all time by CBS Sports. The Hall of Famer, who was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1998, is considered the best left tackle in NFL history. Munoz was selected as the third overall pick in the 1980 NFL Draft, despite concerns about his injury history.

He played 13 seasons with the Bengals, becoming a starter from his rookie year and earning 9 All-Pro and 11 Pro Bowl selections. Munoz's versatility extended beyond his pass-blocking skills, as he caught seven passes and scored four touchdowns during his career. He was named Offensive Lineman of the Year in 1981 and 1988, and NFLPA Offensive Lineman of the Year in 1981, 1985, 1988, and 1989, among other awards.

Munoz's impressive track record includes protecting quarterbacks and contributing seven receptions and four touchdowns to his team.
