William Lueck (born April 7, 1946) is an American former professional football guard in the National Football League (NFL) who played 98 games for the Green Bay Packers and eleven games for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Lueck was the 26th overall pick of the 1968 NFL/AFL Draft out of the University of Arizona, played eight seasons in the NFL, and retired prior to the 1976 season. When hall of famer Jerry Kramer retired after the 1968 season, Lueck succeeded him at right guard for the Packers in 1969.[1]
Lueck's brother Bob Lueck was also a football player, playing in the Canadian Football League for the Calgary Stampeders and Winnipeg Blue Bombers.[2] His grandson Matteo Mele played football for the Washington Huskies.[3]
