Biography
Bert Metzger (January 31, 1909 – March 7, 1986) was an American football player.
A 5-foot-9-inch (175 cm), 152-pound (69 kg) guard from Chicago, Metzger played at the University of Notre Dame and was nicknamed the "watch-charm guard" because of his relatively small size. Metzger played a key role on the Fighting Irish teams that won national championships in 1929 and 1930, and he was named a consensus All-American in 1930. Coach Knute Rockne said that Metzger was the best guard he had ever seen.
After his football career ended, Metzger worked as an executive at Bowman-Dean Foods. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1982.
