Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants
Minnesota acquired linebacker Cliff Livingston from New York on March 31, 1962, sending defensive back Dick Pesonen and its 1963 seventh-round choice, No. 87, later used on Dave Hoppmann. Livingston started for the 1962 Vikings but stayed only one season. Pesonen gave the Giants multiple seasons of secondary depth and interceptions, producing the more durable direct player return for New York.
