Born in Follansbee, West Virginia,[1] Ciccolella attended St. Anthony's High School before being recruited to the University of Dayton in 1960.[2] He played for the school's football team from 1962 to 1964, serving as a captain in his final season.[3] In the 1965 NFL Draft, the Giants selected Ciccolella in the 18th round with the 239th overall pick.[4] During the 1966 season, Ciccolella's first year with the Giants, they made him their starting middle linebacker.[5] After playing in all 14 games that year, Ciccolella participated in only 7 the following season,[1] having suffered an ankle injury in a preseason game.[6] He lost his role as a starter because of the injury; for 1968, he was behind Henry Davis on the Giants' depth chart.[7] In 14 games in 1968, Ciccolella had one interception in a game against the New Orleans Saints, which he returned for seven yards.[1][8] The Giants waived Ciccolella before the 1969 season;[7] in his three-year career he played in 35 games.[1]
