Lynn Swann, wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers, gets ready to shoot a frame of his teammates during picture day in Miami on Jan. 16, 1979, for the upcoming Super Bowl XIII. Swann bruised his left foot when he was stepped on by cornerback Ron Johnson following the picture session. X-rays were negative, the Steelers said, but Swann was taped and limping. The Steelers went on to defeat the Dallas Cowboys 35 to 31, marking the black and gold’s third Super Bowl title. AP
