Walter Raymond Radzick (May 25, 1935 – March 31, 2005) was a Canadian football defensive tackle who played in the Canadian Football League from 1958 to 1965.[1][2]
A graduate of the University of Toronto, Radzick first played football with the Toronto Balmy Beach Beachers of the Ontario Rugby Football Union.
