Career
[edit ]Stofko played in the National Football League for just one season in 1945. Stofko was drafted 85th overall by the "Card-Pitt", a team that was the result of a temporary merger between the Chicago Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. The teams' merger was a result of the manning shortages experienced league-wide due to World War II. He played for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1945.
He attempted 17 passes and completed 7 for a 41.2% average. He also punted for a 36.3 yards per punt average.[1]
