Pat Holmes, AFL All-Star who later called Kerrville home, dies at 85

Pat Holmes, a two-time American Football League All-Star and first-team All-Pro, has died at 85.

By Louis Amestoy·3 hr ago

James Patrick "Pat" Holmes, a two-time American Football League All-Star and first-team All-Pro who anchored the Houston Oilers' defensive line through the franchise's most successful seasons, died June 16.

He was 85. Holmes spent his later years in Kerrville, where he was a member of Faith Christian Church - but his ties to the Hill Country reached back decades.

As a young defensive lineman, he was part of the 1967 Oilers squad that held training camp at Schreiner Institute in Kerrville, the same season he was named first-team All-Pro.
