Question

Only five players ever have been named Rookie of the Year (either Offensive ROY or Defensive ROY) and then gone on to play in a Super Bowl (that same season).

Duane Thomas (Dallas, 1970 season)
Chuck Foreman (Minnesota, 1973)
Jack Lambert (Pittsburgh, 1974)
Tony Dorsett (Dallas, 1977)
Jevon Kearse (Tennessee, 1999)
