Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
San Diego acquired Chuck Muncie during the 1980 season for a 1981 second-round pick. Muncie became an important part of the Air Coryell offense, topped 1,100 rushing yards in 1981 and scored 19 rushing touchdowns that season. The Chargers paid a historic price in hindsight, but they still received several seasons of high-level production from the player they targeted.
Trade 2 of 2
Minnesota acquired Chuck Muncie from San Diego on July 19, 1985 for one conditional 1986 sixth-round pick tied to Muncie remaining with the Vikings through the season. Muncie retired before playing a regular-season game for Minnesota, so the condition was not met and the pick was not exercised. Neither team ultimately received a realized football asset from the transaction.
