Chuck Muncie was a talented Running Back, but his off-field issues and substance abuse made him expendable, so the New Orleans Saints jettisoned him to the San Diego Chargers four Games into the 1980 Season.

Chuck Muncie was the highest drafted Running Back in 1976 (3^rdOverall), and he would become part of the Thunder/Lightning team with Tony Galbreath, and he would be named to the All-Rookie Team.
