Randy McMillan

Lewis Lorando "Randy" McMillan, born December 17, 1958 in Havre de Grace, Maryland in northeast Harford County, was a professional American football player who was selected by the Baltimore Colts in the 1st round (12th overall) of the 1981 NFL Draft. McMillan earlier had played for the "Fighting Owls" of Harford Community College of Harford County, Maryland in Churchville where he earned All-American junior college honors before transferring to the University of Pittsburgh. McMillan played in six National Football League (NFL) seasons from 1981 to 1986 for the old Baltimore Colts, his "home team" and continued with the team when owner Bob Irsay moved them to Indiana in March 1984 in a very controversial franchise move becoming the Indianapolis Colts.

McMillan's career ended following injuries he received during the off-season on April 26, 1987. He was struck by a vehicle in Baltimore County, Maryland and received injuries to his leg and spine. The injuries forced him to miss the 1987 season and receive rehabilitation. He was later offered a contract by the Miami Dolphins, but never caught on.
