Melvin Jack Hein (August 22, 1909 – January 31, 1992) was an American football player for the New York Giants. Hein played fifteen seasons for the Giants (1931–45) and never missed a down due to injury. He is the first player and only offensive lineman to win the NFL MVP award (1938) and he helped the Giants win the championship that season.
Hein was part of the first inductee class into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963. In 1969, he was named the center on the NFL 50th Anniversary Team, and was named to the 75th Anniversary Team in 1994. In 1999, despite 55 years having passed since his last game, he was ranked number 74 on ''The Sporting News list of the 100 Greatest Football Players.
==Early life==
Born in Redding, California, Hein was raised in Burlington, Washington, and played high school football for the Burlington Tigers (now Burlington-Edison High School), where he played center and defensive line positions. In his senior season in 1926, Hein earned the Skagit County Football MVP, the highest award for a prep player in the Skagit Valley in those days, and was also named to the all-state team. It has been said he is the first professional athlete to hail from the state of Washington. Hein is known for wearing jersey number 7 in college and the pros, but it is unknown what jersey number he wore in high school, if any. Hein is also a charter member of the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA). He also excelled in basketball for the Tigers as a center.
