Phil Minnick (born December 28, 1942) was a Canadian football linebacker who played for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. He played college football at the Iowa State University.[1] As a rookie linebacker, he played in 14 games and intercepted one pass on a team that lost the 53rd Grey Cup. Minnick went on to play solid run defense and intercepted a total of 11 passes up to his final year in 1973. He was a CFL-West all-star in 1966 and 1968 and an All-CFL all star in 1968 and 1969, though during the latter year injuries curtailed him to playing only 9 games. A knee injury further limited him to playing only 1 game in 1970, none in 1971, and 8 in 1972, but he reached 15 games in his final year.[2]
